When Life is Too Much

Prayers - Serenity Prayer

By Brenda Scott

When Life is Too Much

I am so tired.WWhenLifeisTooMuch
Help me to get past my thoughts of
"What else can happen?"

It seems like every time I turn around,
the telephone rings with unwanted news.
Or, someone on the job is making demands,
and it's something I can't deliver.
I feel the best I can do, is get by.

Yet it's not all about
just going through the motions.
I know, through You,
I always find a better way.
With exhaustion—I honor You.
With anxiety—I adore You.
With stress—I praise You
I am refreshed.
