My five week old is taking his first nap of the day. My four other kids are finishing up breakfast. My husband is at work after a long (read: short) night with restless kids. The house is tidy enough that I can quickly clean it if a realtor calls to set up a showing. And I’m wondering how in the world I’m going to get my oldest to her first day of kindergarten on Monday and not ugly cry in front of everyone.
In this phase of my life Matt Maher’s song is a prayer I’m saying a lot. Maybe it’s a prayer you need to pray too. Maybe in transition from summer to fall or new babies or marriages or loneliness or new jobs or new homes or the death of a loved one or the ending high of World Youth Day or whatever it is, maybe you too need to praise God and sing to him, “Lord I need You” and remember that He is with us.
Lord, hear our prayer
