wow..

i don't think i realized the gravity of a hurricane until i read the headlines today. katrina ripped through louisiana and alabama with a vengeance. the death toll is unknown, but they fear the worst. please take time to pray for them..

*sigh* it's like i never learn. i've been justifying my lack of prayer by saying that things are "fine" and there isn't anything extremeley prayer-worthy happening..in my life. i am so self-centered. this is why my walk is so shaky when things are ok. when things are ok, i'm content and forget to pray. i'm so ignorant to the things that go on around me.. and i claim i dislike ignorance.

Lord, please help me to remember those who are struggling. Lord please help me to focus outside of my insignificant existence. I pray all these things in Your Heavenly name.. Amen.
