Father I pray that you will remove the heaviness of this person's heart and replace it with joy and excitement for life and the possibilities of it. I pray that you will comfort cj and bless him with a new purpose in life. I pray, Father, that you will speak to cj's heart and remind him that he never needs to feel lonely if he carries you in his heart. That you will always be with him and are Always willing to listen. Cj I have an excercise for you that never ceases to help me when I am feeling down and abandoned my those around me. I seek out a nice sunny day out in nature. In my back yard or a park or national forest. I sit down and JUST WATCH AND LISTEN to all the nature around me. Squirrels and chipmunks chasing each other. Birds of various shapes, sounds and colors flying around. Butterflies dancing past me face. Fishing swimming and jumping in a pond. Frogs singing thier mating calls to each other. Interesting plants and flowers at every turn, each a little different than the other. It is only a matter of time before I forget what has been bothering me and I start to appreciate being alive and thanking the Lord for always seeing me through any difficult time that life throws my way. This process never ceases to pull me closer to the Lord and farther away from my troubles of the moment. I always walk away feeling a new sense of appreciation, joy, and peace of mind and calm. It NEVER fails to work for me. I hope it will do the same for you.
