Sometimes I take on waaaaay too much and want to try to fix everything and keep everyone happy and make everything alright. I am learning that the absolute best gift I can give is prayer. Not the last resort but the best options. All my efforts to "fix it" need to proceed out of first giving it all to the Master Fixer. So, to all my friends, I am officially resigning as Superwoman. But I will continue to be your faithful friend and prayer parnter! Love ya'll!

Prayer for a Friend
by Casting Crowns

I've done all that I know to do.
I lift my friend, to You.
In complicated circumstances with clouded view.

Lord I lift my friend up to You.
I fear that I won’t have the words that he needs to hear.
I pray for Your wisdom , oh God.
And a heart that's sincere.
And Lord I lift my friend up to You.

Lord I lift my friend to You.
Though he's my best friend in the world,
I know he means much more to You.
I want so much to help him,
but this is something he has to do.

Lord I lift my friend up to You.
There's a way that seems so right to him.
But You know where that leads.
He's becoming a puppet of the world.
Too blind to see the strain.
And Lord I lift my friend up to You.

Lord I lift my friend to You.
I've done all that I know to do.
I lift my friend, to You.
