day thirtytwo

dear god

today i am worn. i am bummed about colton's attitude today. i am bummed that collante got removed from his home because he's been violent. i am bummed about manuel's problems in school and at home and all of the behavior issues that lily is dealing with. i pray for colette's kids that i love so much but are hard on their families. i pray for donna and jill and mr and mrs booth as i know they're heart broken after having to institutionalize collante. i pray that you would spare the others from the nature that they came from and help us to nurture them enough to make them well. i don't even really feel like praying 'cause i feel so down. but i know that you want to hear from us even when we're scared for the future, sad, and discouraged. i can't stop thinking about this song so this is what i have to give tonight....

I’m Tired I’m worn
My heart is heavy
From the work it takes to keep on breathing
I’ve made mistakes
I’ve let my hope fail
My soul feels crushed by the weight of this world
And I know that you can give me rest
So I cry out with all that I have left

Let me see redemption win
Let me know the struggle ends
That you can mend a heart that’s frail and torn
I wanna know a song can rise from the ashes of a broken life
And all that’s dead inside can be reborn
Cause I’m worn

I know I need to lift my eyes up
But im too weak
Life just won’t let up
And I know that you can give me rest
So I cry out with all that I have left

Let me see redemption win
Let me know the struggle ends
That you can mend a heart that’s frail and torn
I wanna know a song can rise from the ashes of a broken life
And all that’s dead inside can be reborn
Cause I’m worn
My prayers are wearing thin
And I’m worn
Even before the day begins
I’m worn
I’ve lost my will to fight
I’m worn
Heaven come and flood my eyes

Let me see redemption win
Let me know the struggle ends
That you can mend a heart that’s frail and torn
I wanna know a song can rise from the ashes of a broken life
And all that’s dead inside can be reborn
Cause all that’s dead inside will be reborn

that is all ...... amen.....
