A prayer, not for the faint of heart

A challenging prayer to pray, but it has been on constant repeat in my heart the past few days and weeks.

Lord Jesus,
You have hemmed me in, behind and before.  Thank you for bringing Evan and me to this place.  We have our eyes open to you, our hearts sensitive to your Spirit, our ears tuned to your word.  We wait for you.  We hold our hands open before you, offering all our hearts hold dear.  My timid hands tremble, Lord, for fear you may actually take what we place before you, again.  But, doggedly, I will trust you and throw myself on your mercy seat, knowing that where you are is the safest place I can dwell.
I love you,
Amen.
