Got this off a friend's blog. Trust the Japanese, who are notorious for being in the office 1 hr early, to come up with such brilliant ideas. Laugh yourself silly with this one!

Thank You Lord for Everything...
What is it like to cry out to God for help in one of your darkest moments in life, begging him for answers to questions that keep you awake at night?
What is it like to surrender your heartbreaks and troubles to God, knowing that you are powerless, but in your weakness, He is made perfect and mighty?
What is it like to have to walk away from love and to exit with grace and humility even though it pierces your heart so much?
What is it like to embark on a faith journey, to be utterly broken by God in the process, to have three breakthroughs in two weeks, and to have a renewed vision to serve the Lord once again?
Father, thank you for hearing my cries and seeing my tears. I know that You have not forsaken me, and will never will. I have not received an answer from You on many things, but I patiently wait for You to call. And on my many darkest nights, thank you for providing a listening ear as I struggle with myself and my emotions. The struggle is still ongoing but I know I will come out of this stronger, wiser and more humble.
Father, I have seen what You have done for me in the past two weeks and I am in awe. Amidst the emotional roller-coaster ride and the swirl of events that have changed so many things in my life, I have surely grown to be a vessel for Your work. While I recover and rejuvenate in the Spirit, I pray that you will guard my heart and emotions, and to listen to my prayers, including those for my loved ones.
Father, I know I have every reason to be joyful because this is a new season of seeking what You want for me, not just what I want. And I am hopeful that the future will be positive and fruitful with You once again in my life. With you as my shield and rampart, I know that I can overcome unsurmountable odds and live to see a greater tomorrow. For I know that after the bleak winter, there will be a much-awaited spring around the corner.
Amen.
