Robilee...The best prayer I know is "Thy will, not mine, be done."

It can be a toughie, unless I trust my Creator and know that I and all those I care for are in His/Her hands.

He might have other ideas that will turn into things beyond your wildest dreams.

Or try this - pray for what you want, and end with, "if it is your will for me."

From my own experience, it is a relief when I can let go of my own wants and expectations.
