A Prayer I need right now:

"Lord, keep your arm around my shoulder and your hand over my mouth."
-------------------------------------
I am quoting this from a member's "Signature" quote. I wish I could remember from whom it came from...sorry...)

The worst thing about (my) mental illness and my personality too (can't always blame the illness), is that I have such incredible difficulty in holding back my emotions. And when my emotions gain control, my mouth becomes my weapon.

I keep thinking about a scripture: (paraphrasing here) The heart is treacherous; who can know (trust?) it? Another one comes to mind too: (paraphrasing again) The man who can control his tongue...(?)

I guess I keep thinking about this (which is so cool!) is because, at this particular moment in my life, I need this prayer answered.

Yahweh...please help me!

The quote is from MRB but I can't remember the numbers right now. She's a good friend of mine. Her name is Melissa.

I'm in prayer with you, AS!

MRB?

I have some duct tape you can use til your prayers are answered, but what happens if you blow? You might implode, then we'd all have to witness you fly around the room making funny noises like a deflating balloon. People might think it's due to lactose intolerance.

I need that prayer too. I'll join you in it for both of us.
