End of the Day Prayer...
by Bobette Bryan
God,
At the end of the day,
let me not dwell on my failures
or recount my disappointments.
Let my heart not be heavy
over the day's frustrations,
the cold voices,
and minor vexations.
Remind me that there's so much more to life
than worry, pain and trivial strife.
Let me not be blind
to each tiny pleasure.
Remind me that each little blessing
is something to treasure.
Let me hear children's laughter,
the voice of a dear friend;
and let the warm memories revive me...
when a long day ends.
And wrap me tight in your arms,
once my worries depart;
never let me forget your love
lest I forget my heart.
