Dearest heavenly Father,

A mussel in the sea bed spends its entire life opening and closing its mouth or rubbing some strong glue on the sea floor. They do no have brains, they do not have emotions and their lives seem so automated by differences in concentration and pressure. In stark contrast, in a day your beloved daughter can feel an ocean of emotions, some bring extreme grief, some bring extreme elation. I am so thankful, that You created Man in Your own image. I am so thankful I can feel.

My dearest Father, the wonderful gift You have given me, sometimes it brings me great woe and frustration. While I listen and understand well what it is You are saying, others do not. Yet I can't find a better way to express myself, I only know what needs to be done for You as You have called, I have to do it and I am more than willing to do it for my Lord. It was recently that I realised it may not be as easy as the gift seems after all. I am so prone to rejections, disbelief, fury, indifference, faithlessness and even mockery. But no Father, I am not going to give this up, because I know very well that You are here with me.

I only pray and ask Father that You take full control of our situations and let Your purpose be revealed, be it in due time or be it now. I know for sure that You will never forget Your children, even when we have forgotten You.

I seriously don't know how many people will even understand the things that I'm saying, but I will still give You thanks. I thank You Father, that when I asked that You "let Your will be done", You answered me "let My will be shown". I thank You for Your teaching, that when Your will is done it only means there is completion, but when Your will is shown, we will all see with our eyes that it is Your making and Your hand in all those things. So my dear Father, let Your will be shown.

My life, their lives, I give it all to You.
