I have hard and low days sometime. I went to St Mary’s in Menasha, WI to pray and hoping to feel better. There were some prayer cards on a window sill, and this one with Jesus and the child, caught my eye. When I read the back, the prayer seemed as if it God had put it there just for me to find:
Do you believe that I am the Son of God? And do you believe that I died for all men and women and that I rose from the dead? Then why do you continue to be distracted and anxious about your loved ones? Do they not also belong to me? Would I refuse to work in their lives just as I work in yours? I have not put you in charge of redeeming them. I have already done that. Nor do you have the power to change their hearts; Only my Holy Spirit searches and knows the deepest hearts of men and women, and only He can heal their deepest wounds. Your task is to love, to forgive, to pray for them and to turn them over to Me. Come closer to Me yourself and I will do the rest. TRUST ME! (Author unknown; revised)
