Today's Prayer

Dear God,

You need to understand that I am so tired of trying to make other people understand why I am the way I am. I wish there was an easy answer. I don't know why You made me like this,  not able to communicate with ease, filled with pain so much of the time. 

I do know you gave me so many people to love and to have love me back. I wouldn't know and love some of these most wonderful friends if you hadn't made me like this.  

It is not easy to find positivity all the time, but I know that You love me more than I can imagine. I take that love very seriously, and in turn,  I can love my friends more than they can imagine. 

Because You love me, I can love too.

Amen.

Poverty

Poverty of spirit.
People who might have a lot of money
might still be poor.
Poverty is not just about money.
Not just about things.
Not just about stuff.

Poverty comes in many forms:
Poor in spirit
Poor in self love
Poor in self awareness.
That is poverty too.

You might have enough to eat
but you are never so loved that you are totally full.
Everyone has the need to find nourishment through love.
Healthy friendships and healthy families
leave us feeling filled.
We are all hungry for something or someone.
Who/What we get to fill that need is up to everyone individually.

Let us strive to find an end to all types of poverty,
opening our hearts to the potential in powerful relationships.

A.T.
