And I\u2019m not saying there isn\u2019t merit to all of those things.\u00a0 But over the past week<\/strong>, I\u2019ve found myself retreating<\/strong>.<\/em>\u00a0 I want to be informed, I want to know how and what to pray specifically for.\u00a0 I want to be the hands and feet of Jesus.

Overwhelmed, hurting, frustrated, even angry.\u00a0 Discouraged and disheartened by the many, MANY things that are so far out of any control we could ever gather.\u00a0 Distraught, scared, and anxious.\u00a0 Heartbroken.<\/p>\n
