A prayer to pray now
Dear God, You want to make me whole. Not broken. Not missing pieces. But right now, I feel like I am missing some pieces. I am not as kind as I want to be. I get jealous. I lie sometimes when I am embarrassed. But You are putting me back together. You are not done yet. Keep working on me, even on the parts I would rather hide. Amen.
