I awoke this morning in a bad mood
and I have been unable to shake it so far.
Everything bothers me
and everyone rubs me the wrong way.
I just cannot seem to get my true bearings.
Help me to think of your salvation-
your countless gifts and overwhelming love for me.
Let me relax and forget life's cares
by placing myself wholly in your hands.
Grant that this mood will soon pass
and I will be able to bask in your love
and communicate it to others.
Amen.

Esther...you have absolutely no idea how much this prayer was needed...at EXACTLY this moment! I have done nothing but yell at my kids today! I feel like I need confession after this week! I'm really struggling right now! Please pray for me! I think the lack of estrogen is beginning to have an effect....severe moodiness and irritability! I'm desperate right now! Thank you so much for posting this.
