A prayer for the day

Nana is not a morning person.  Gramps says that I need an extra long runway to get "airborne" for the day.
So I share this with all kindred spirits out there.

    "Dear Lord,  so far this day I have not lost my temper at anyone.  I have not yelled at my children, I haven't scolded my husband or had negative thoughts about the neighbors, who own a really obnoxious dog that barks most of the night.  I have not been offended by by mothers manipulative phone calls or been frustrated with the overdraft charges  that showed up on my bank statement.
    But I'm going to be getting out of bed soon, so I pray dear Lord, that you will help me get through this day with patience and grace.    Thanks for another day to live and breath and practice being good...."
