This is going to be short. Yesterday I was out walking a LOT farther and longer than I thought I was going to. It was easy to get frustrated, with myself, mind you. Nobody else was to blame for getting off the bus too soon or for not asking precise directions when leaving the church.
So I came up with this quick prayer, and I'm pretty sure other people say it and it's not original, but I just said:
"Lord, please redeem this situation 10 times over."
Just like that, it leaves you open to expect the Lord to come in great ways and redeem and make much of himself. Especially when we make messes of ourselves.
Try it and see if you don't find yourself with less stress and joy!
