Help me to be patient and wait upon the lord

I totaled my car exactly one month ago. I’m healing miraculously from broken ribs, sternum and collarbone. I know I have a punishment awaiting in the coming weeks. I received a ticket for driving while intoxicated. I praise God that no other vehicles or persons were involved in this accident, and that I’m here today to tell my story. I am a 68 year old christian, mother and grama. I do not have a substance abuse problem.
I made a foolish, almost life threatening mistake.
I’m asking for prayers that the court will be lienent and understanding to my 1st offense. I cannot afford a lawyer. I do not know what the outcome will be.
I am mortified and scared. I do know God is in control. I pray for patience, and peace.

Father,
Waiting is the worst. It’s so hard for us, Father! It challenges our faith, but also allows us time to come closer to You. Father, I bring Kathy8202’s requests to you, today, and ask for healing, hope, and peace. God, I pray for patience, and for Your amazing care in the process. You are so faithful to guide us in the waiting, while we heal.
In Jesus’ Name,
Amen.
