My prayers of the past are marked by weariness or panic. I wonder if God thought “Why didn’t you talk to me earlier before the mess started?” But I think I’m learning to pray when I’m burdened by what I see around me, rather than just complain about it or play judge and jury. I cannot change anyone’s attitude but mine, and my panic or judging response helps no one. My weariness about my own mental mess has become less as I’m learning to talk everything out with Him.
