Prayer request

I sit alone in my room quietly listening to Christian music play softy from my computer system speakers. Nearer My God plays softly and my soul climbs quietly into the awaiting arms of Christ my Savior. I find a comfort there, a place to rest from the world and its demands for activity and action. My body is sore, my spirit low. Yet outside, the sun shines brightly casting its beams of light across the landscape and lighting off plums of color in each bush, tree and flower it touches. Even with such beauty surround me, yet I still feel empty, exhausted and spent.
I know you are there Lord, but at this particular moment I feel so alone and helpless. The music plays on and I hear the great old song, “How Great Thou Art” and I know in my heart that you are there. Would you please be more direct for me this morning? My life is such a little thing when I think of all the people you have created and the universe at large. Why give me a second thought? Yet I know you do, as I remember the closeness of times long past. When I was out of work in Oklahoma, you were there giving me comfort and hope. You allowed me to share our experiences and witness with other families, bring them hope and peace.
In Brazil you were with me each time and so close. I watched you perform miracles and was a part of some of those miracles. I watched and listened and heard you words, felt your presence and knew you were there with me in the company of real brothers and sisters in Christ. I felt like shouting and singing praises to you.
Lord, you are my family, my father and Christ my brother as well as the Holy Spirit who enlightens my way, but today Lord I feel so empty. Won’t you please hear my cry?
David
