Lord God, when it comes to the problems that come my way in life, I confess that I don’t always handle them as I should. Often I don’t want to define the problem clearly because deep down I know that I’m a part of the problem and I don’t want to admit that and I don’t want to change. Forgive me, Lord.

Forgive me also for not bringing my problems to you in prayer until things are in such a mess. How that must frustrate you, Lord.

And then there are those times I do bring my problems to you and you do bring wisdom to bear on those problems through your Word, but then I don’t act. I do it my way, not your way. Forgive me for my disobedience.

Lord, I don’t know what hitches, what problems will surface this week, but I do know that you will be with me in every circumstance. And you do want to help me to face these hitches and to overcome them. Thank you, Lord. Amen.
