Hey God,

It's me again. You know I am very exhausted. I will probably fall asleep while talking to you, in bed with my eyes closed. It has happened way too many times. But I don't mean to. Early mornings and late nights. Days that are non-stop and filled with back-to-back things to do. You know all of my problems, worries, hopes, and dreams. I pray to you every day about MY life, having faith that MY prayers will be answered.

I love talking to you. You truly and full-heartedly listen to me every time I talk. You also answer in the best ways possible -- recently you answered one of my prayers. And that is why I want to say:

I am sorry.

I found myself being selfish. Every time I talked to you, God, I only prayed for myself. I asked that all of MY problems and worries would go away. I asked that you point me in the right direction so that all of MY hopes and dreams would come true. But I rarely prayed for others. I usually only pray for others when asked to, and I shouldn't. I should pray for others without them having to ask. I am sorry I have become selfish in my prayers.

But thank you for opening my eyes and teaching me how to love unselfishly the way you do. So here I am today praying for others.

For those who are sick and hurting.

For those fighting for their rights.

For the world and its people -- to become one again.

For more people to have a beautiful and strong relationship with you, God.

I pray for more people to love like you do.

Amen.
