Prayer for Busy Times

A dear friend recently sent me this prayer, which I thought I would share with all of my busy friends..... hope you enjoy it as much as I did and don't cringe too much if you see yourself in some of these situations ...... no one's perfect ! Well, then again ...... :)

God help me to consider people’s feelings, even if most of them ARE hypersensitive.

Lord help me follow established procedures today. On second thought, I’ll settle for a few minutes.
