The sound of your voice

Hi Dad:
I wonder what your voice sounds like? Well, I kind of know what is
sounds like. Your voice is gentle, quiet, calm. Your voice is firm
and convicting. Your voice is deep, and it penetrates the soul, body,
and spirit. Your voice is filled with love. But you can be angry at
times to, but even than your voice remains the same. You are not
judgmental but you do judge righteously. You are not like men who can
judge incorrectly. You are not critical, you understand my strengths
and weaknesses. You are patient with me, your daughter, and I think is
so cool. There is none like you. Dad, help me to always remember your
goodness especially when I am dealing with the judging, criticizing
attitude of men, even my mother in the Lord, Na Tanya. She is only a
person, not God, not my Dad. I know that you can and will use her for
your purposes for me. But I am not going to be afraid of her, because
your word tells me not to fear any man. Whatever misunderstandings
exists between she and I, Dad I pray that You would help us resolve it
all, so that we can become better friends. I know that we need one
another. If we cannot get along here on earth for a little while, then
we are going to have a very difficult time in eternity. Show us both
how to be reconciled withone another in You, for You are the true and
living God of reconciliation. And show us what exactly we have to be
reconciled about because I am really clueless. Show us what is the
proper balance in our relationship. I know that there is much wisdom
in her, because of the life experiences that she has, but I feel that
does not make void my own life experiences.
Okay, so she is struggling with grief of loosing our relationship as
it used to be. But Dad, relationships change because people change. I
know that I am changing for the better, therefore, I pray that our
reelationship will change for the better. Help me Lord to respond to
her is a loving, mature manner, to respond your way not my way. But I
don't want us to just sweep our pain under the carpet because that
does not make any of it go away. Dad, I pray that You would amputate
the dead areas of our relationship, so that You can make it whole. I
desire that our relationship would bring you honor and glory, and
would be an example of Godly mother-daughter relationships.
I thank You for her in my life. I am better person because of her
presence in my life.
In jesus Name I pray, Amen.
