Joy Prayers: What Do I Do With all The Obstacles?



The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him.

-Psalm 28:7

God there are so many times that I feel like
 I have too many obstacles to contend with
 and they seem to be never ending.

  All I can do is rely on the words
you have spoken to my heart
 about the good work you have begun in me.

Have mercy on me Lord.
 Ease the bitterness of discouragement.
  The hope of what you have begun burns inside me,
 a consuming fire Lord.
 To the point that it makes my heart feel sick.

Remind me Lord that it is the chasing after you,
 your voice,
 your heart
 and your good pleasure
 that is ultimately
the best part of any vision
 you have put within me.

Remind me that my life belongs to you;
 however you choose to navigate it.

And Lord, help me to not look simply to outside circumstances
 to reveal my progress in life in terms of this vision.

Remind me that this life is going
according to your plan
I yield my ways to you.
