I am writing this needing a very special prayer. I have been working supporting myself since 1998 when I left my ex-husband. Also as you know I have my two parents who sometimes need my help. Also during my times of trials at work all I would get from my parents was, "You need to keep your job." even if I was miserable, etc. I feel like over all these years I am under a lot of pressure. This pressure makes me impatient with people. I am glad I have moved to graveyard but that has also been an adjustment with sleeping, etc. But the trials I have gone through with the co-workers during my five years mostly working the day shift is still with me and those bad feelings, etc I need to get rid of. Also I get tired of complaining customers about things that I can't do anything about and asking questions that I don't have the answer to and making me feel stupid. Sometimes I do stupid things out of anger. I really need JESUS' help I know this and I need a miracle from the Lord. What I need most of all is to have in my heart that same love for people that JESUS had for all kinds of people when He was on the earth. Whatever patience He has I need that so that I can survive. I work in retail not because I really like it but because it is mostly easy work. I know that He always loved people but when He took on our form I'm sure that it was different for Him in a way. I hope you understand. I thought that I would write this to you because sometimes it seems we don't have enough time to talk face to face. The only drawback I have found about the graveyard shift is on Sunday nights when I know I have to work that night I feel rushed and to me Sundays you shouldn't feel so rushed. What makes it bad is that my boss has never rotated weekends off for anyone except for a lady named Sylvia. She gets every weekend off. But when I get a weekend off I have to wait 8-10 days before I get another day off which is why I prefer Wednesday and Thursday off. Please pray for me.--from Pamela Luling, Texas USA

Dear Lord,

I ask that you reknew and refresh Pamela, as she needs a rest with you Lord, and a time on the mountain alone to regain strength just with you. Give her that gift Lord, so she can again be a gift to others.

Lord, impart in her a more patient , loving spirit and help her turn her anger, impatience and bitter feelings over to you to be replaced with the fruits of your spirit, love, joy, patience, trust, hope Lord, that she can only gain by surrendering to you daily. Help her to walk in your spirit Lord, and give her the willingness to turn it over to you.

Lord above all else give her rest in her mind, body and spirit and refresh her Lord, like a spring of healing rain washing down on her, refreshing every area of her.

In your name, I pray.

Amen.
