Everything Rests on Hope Now

Lord,
Some days the words for prayer just won't come. Thanks for knowing my heart, even when I don't know how to put it into words. I will praise you in this storm, Lord. This pit seems like a black hole, with no light in sight. But I will cling to your promises, that I can be made new. I have to believe that I WILL be made new. Lord, make me into a new creation, help me to find joy in this time. I have tasted the joy of knowing you, and I pray that I will be able to bring you glory again in my life. Right now, I am filled with shame at this person I have become. What happened to my joy, Lord? Why can't I just choose to pick myself out of this? Today...I choose to hope. Even though today I feel I will not accomplish much...I will hope that you will motivate me to take one more step. One more step towards the goal. One more step towards you.
