Katie's prayer: Third Day's "How's Your Head"

Right now I've only a minute

Dear God, Tonight was another night of where I tell myself “only one more thing and then I’m going to get ready for bed, pray then sleep.” And then, ten things later, I’m finally getting off to bed to pray. And because it’s starting to get late, and now that I’ve added reading a chapter of Luke after prayanewsong and before bed, I feel like we won’t get the amount of prayer time as I would prefer. If it really only happened once in a blue moon, I’d be ok. But really, it’s happened far too many times to count and I don’t like it. I know, I know, it’s all my fault. I need to start listening to myself when I say it’s bedtime. But as with all good things I need to do, but aren’t currently doing, it’s obvious I need Your help. So, please, God, help me to be a better pray-er by listening to myself trying to be conscious of my sleepiness. Amen.
