"Stressing Out!"

O Lord, I'm not so good tonight,

I'm stressing to my max!

I wish I'd finished this work earlier

so I could finally relax!

Lord, I need more diligence,

and wisdom would help too.

And patience with myself,

and focusing more on You!

God, I'm such a fool sometimes,

I hate it when I'm this way!

I wait to write my paper until the very last day!

Lord, please be my guide as I write this paper tonight,

and remind me never to do this again,

when you wake me with the morning light!
