Lord, please release me from my depression and ruminating thoughts. Show me the gifts you have given me to serve others, and help me use them. Help me find community, and not isolation. Soften my heart and the heart of my partner so that we can heal our relationship. Make a way in the desert for us to be together with my girls in a way that is of the highest good for all involved. Forgive me for the expectations I put on others, help me to see myself the way you created me to be and to see your light in others. Help me to be filled with your peace and joy so I can be a reflection of you to my children and everyone I come into contact with. Today and always. Amen.
