A more positive, realistic outlook

Dear Heavenly Father,

Help me to overcome being impatient.  Help me to live and live a healthy lifestyle.  Help me to live that lifestyle one moment at a time.  I tend to see the bigger picture instead of what is ahead of me. That is one of many issues that I am writing about.  My lack of patience is an issue that I need help in.  I would like to be a more patient and wise person.  I realize and have faith that patience is a virtue.  It will be an even bigger virtue.  A lack of patience and foresight is an issue of why I gain weight back.  Show me what I need to do.  I am overwhelmed with seeing things as I want them instead of what is real.  Show me to be a positive yet realistic person who doesn't see anything but flaws.  I don't want to be impatient and admit to things that are negative for the sake of trying to be positive.  I thought that admitting to things could cause me to become more positive because I am telling the truth.  The irony is, admitting to things are a sign of being even more negative.  So I don't wish to admit anything.  I want to be honest and tell You how I feel without always be so negative and without always be down on myself.  Help me, Lord, to overcome those things that need to be overcome.  I thank You and I praise You for answering this prayer,

In Jesus' name,


Amen
