thank you God for being involved in our lives.

i don't think i could get out of this hole without your hope.

you've shown me things about myself which were tearing me up.

help me to not let things people say hurt me.

help me to be more open and honest with myself and other people.

give me strength to strive after the good things in life.

give me purpose and a plan for a i know that you have one for me.

i am so thankful that you gave me such a wise and loving brother.

i know that it is you speaking through him so that i can hear you.

don't let me forget the love that i have for my brothers (cortland, z-bear, zach, and jb)

make me strong and patient so that i may help them when they need me.

the most important thing to remember is that i must live to share christ's love.
