my prayer

dear God,

i’m done doing this on my own. i’m done trying to make everything right myself, explaining everything away.

i’m done with excuses, i’m done with being frustrated with myself constantly.

i am nothing on my own.

i’m throwing in the towel on me. i want you to take it from here.

i was foolish to think i could make it on my own. without you.

you have never wronged me and yet, i continually leave you behind, unintentionally forgetting you.

i love you with all that i am. use me as you see fit, and may what you want to be done be accomplished through me from this moment forward.

may i never forget, not even for a second, the one who has created me and sustains my life.

love,

andrew
