I am a little stressed. Which is good I suppose. For the past year and a half things have been relatively easy for me. I have been lightly gliding through life not really needing alot from the big guy (because He had given me this abundance of blessings). As a result my prayers were also easy and light. There wasn't that closeness that I had felt in the past during humble prayer. I missed that feeling, although I was grateful for the break from hardships.
Now life has picked up the pace again and I am facing challenges that I know I cannot overcome on my own. This has lead to more earnest prayers and pleading to my Father for help. I don't feel like I deserve the help after my bout of light prayer, but I know He will help me regardless of my shortcomings. I am grateful for the humility that challenges bring and the sincre prayers that come from being humbled. I am grateful for my challenges.
No sympathy please. This is not a post to make you feel bad for me. This is good. I am good. Well, I will be good. I brought them on myself and I am grateful for them. I swear. :)

I soooo hear ya! And as I listened to Conference last week, I kept hearing things about having hope, accepting change, and standing strong in adversity. Did you hear the same stuff? It must be a feeling that is going around....
