After praying about a situation for 5 years, I read a devotional that changed my perspective. It talked about “us”. We are all dealing with things. It pointed out praying US. Instead of asking God to fix them, I will pray for God to help US to draw closer, to grow, and to change. Interesting-the US could also be God and I!!
Also, I have been alone for 12 years and recently met someone. Transitioning to an “us” takes time and work!!
