Listen to my prayer, O God, do not ignore my plea;
hear me and answer me...
I said, "Oh, that I had the wings of a dove!
I would fly away and be at rest...
But I call to God, and the Lord saves me.
Evening, morning and noon I cry out in distress,
and he hears my voice...
Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you;
he will never let the righteous fall...
But as for me, I trust in you.

Listen to my prayer, Lord; also, help me listen to your answer. Help me to learn from the struggles I face. Help me to realize you are always at my side. I often wish I could run and hide from the problems. I often feel like I am the only one with troubles. Oh, to fly away, far away but where would I go? I know that you hear me when I call out to you. I know that you are always there. I know that your timing is not mine and that I just have to wait patiently on you, Lord. Therefore, I throw to you my burdens. I toss my cares your way, knowing they are dealt with. I, then, strive to live my life, as you would have me to do. I just need learn to enjoy the comfort of your rest and the beauty of your timing.
