Thankful...count it all joy

Father,

I thank You that You answer prayer.  Last night was a turning point.  I prayed quite a bit today.  It exposed issues that I sometimes wish wasn't exposed.  I do care too much what others think.  Sadly, I feel like I have become more of a friend to the world instead of you.  It is quite sad.  I ask for forgiveness.  The cares of this life have bogged me down and it hasn't been made easy.  I cast those cares upon You.  Thank You for caring about me.  I will count it all joy.

In Jesus' name,

Amen
