Dear Lord, Why are we, your children, so proud and foolish?  Is seems that we don't listen until we're faced with disaster, and  then we come running and crying home to you, wanting you to fix us! Problem being, we want you to fix it the way we want it, and not the way you would have it to go. the question is, do we relinquish everything to you oh Lord, or do we force you to strip us bard before we understand that YOU are really in control of all things. What makes us so stiff-necked and rebellious anyway? Our own selfish desires? Our own wills? Oh Father in Heaven, forgive us for wanting everything our own way, forgetting that You made us, know us, and love us.
