 Father God, 

Today I am useless. And I am very frustrated. What I am doing is not good enough and everything is conspiring to pile on to this feeling. I want to go and sit in a corner and pull myself out of society - to save them from me and my incompetence. To save me from not being good enough.

But You don't want me to feel sorry for myself. You don't want me to wallow in self-pity.

Having nothing else to say, I therefore just say thank You. 

Thank You for my job. 

Thank You for my mom. 

Thank You for people who do love me and care for me. 

Thank You for loving me. 

Thank You for defeating the devil, so that he doesn't have any power over me that I don't give him. 

Help me to not give him power over me, my feelings, my thoughts or my heart. 

I praise Your name. I lift You up and exalt You, because Your are worthy. You cover me and hide me and You are my fortress and my strength. I praise Your name, I glorify You. Holy Holy Holy Lord God Almighty, who was and is and is to come. 

I bow down and glorify You. I worship You and lift You up. 

I lay before You my fears and tears and sorrow and rejection and ask that You will take it, wash it and cover it in the blood of the Lamb. Use it for Your glory.
