Prayer

Lord, I am really tired of driving and the trouble of keeping an automobile. When I think of how wonderful it is to call for a car to within the neighborhood, I realize how truly blessed I am.

 

Perhaps it was just a matter of ego that made it so tough to give up driving. There! I said it. Quite frankly, that's all it really was.

 

I am relieving myself of one more encumbrance. Thank you, Lord, for giving me the good sense to give up driving and leave it to those who love it.  ~Amen~
