I’m in awe of your ways, oh Lord In me, You love and value what I don’t. You gladly use what I want to discard. If I see a dead end, You show me a path out.
If I’m blind, You make me listen. If I’m deaf, You show me the truth. When I rest, You visit my thoughts.
You lift me up when I’m humble and tame me when I’m proud. You frustrate my plans, when I’m controlling and help me advance when I give You my trust.
You show me that love is the way Because I was wounded, I could help others heal Because I was broken, I could help others to mend.
Every time I feared to trust You I was faced with your unrelenting love You left me without arguments and excuses and what was left was nothing more but awe of your ways, oh Lord. Amen — Sindy Collazo

Today’s Reflection: Help Me Learn To Read My Heart
Almighty God, author of my life, help me learn to read what you have written on my heart. Give me discerning eyes and an untiring spirit to look within me in order to understand how to reach outside of me. And once I have begun to read you aright, give me the generosity to help others to read you, to sound you out one letter, one word of radical giving at a time.—Author Unknown

Today’s Reflection: Silence consists, above all, in being quiet so as to be always ready to receive something greater. Leave your analyses and the avalanche of your deductions. Allow silence to be manifested within your interior self.— Bodmin Hermit
