Go to sleep (or at least try to) with a number of troublesome issues on the brain...then wake up with none of them solved. Roll over and snatch your smart phone in one clumsy move; checking your emails, text messages, and bank account - only to find your late-night working boss emailed you three assignments at 1 a.m. that she needs to be completed by lunch. It seems like that email sparked the memory of all of the challenges in your life. To quickly take your thoughts off late bills and dwindling finances you thumb through your social media feeds to like a few statuses and reach for the remote control to flick on the T.V., but you catch yourself. Gotta thank the Man upstairs (after all He is first in your life). Then, after your 30 second order...uhh...prayer, with your Droid still in grasp, you hop up to get geared for the day. But maybe the prayer was too long, because you glance at your hand to notice you're about 15 minutes late. So you fuss and cuss your way through the morning; finally ending up with a hefty, complaining sigh...wondering with all of this confusion is God hearing your ever-so-often 30 second petitions.
