Megan's prayer: Kirk Franklin's "Could've Been"

I just can't thank you enough

One of the wonderful, and yet sometimes frustrating things, about my faith is that is i never over. It is never done. It can never be crossed off a to-do list, or mastered, or finished. It is everlasting.

This is frustrating only because I like to be able to tie up all the lose ends of my life. I love crossing things off of a to-do list, feeling like I have accomplished something. But I can't do that with prayer. I can never say "ok God - I've thanked you for everything in my life." There is no way to wrap our minds around just how much we should thank him for.

Despite my need for organization, the rest of me loves the fact that my prayer and faith life is never complete. I love having something to work towards, something to strive for. Because "faith" isn't on my to-do list, it remains an enjoyable part of my life, and not something that turns into a chore. I pray that these last few weeks of pray a new song remain enjoyable, and don't become a chore for anyone.
