Today’s Reflection – Drenched in Holiness: Prayer for a New Year Dear God, On this day I ask You to grant this request? May I know who I am and what I am, Every moment of every day. May I be a catalyst for light and love, And bring inspiration to those whose eyes I meet. May I have the strength to stand tall in the face of conflict, And the courage to speak my voice, even when I’m scared. May I have the humility to follow my heart, And the passion to live my soul’s desires. May I seek to know the highest truth And dismiss the gravitational pull of my lower self. May I embrace and love the totality of myself? My darkness as well as my light. May I be brave enough to hear my heart? To let it soften so that I may gracefully Choose faith over fear. Today is my day to surrender anything that stands Between the sacredness of my humanity and my divinity. May I be drenched in my Holiness And engulfed by Your love. May all else melt away. And so it is. – by Debbie Ford. Morning Offering is a daily post by Joe Barkovich, who lives in his hometown of Welland, Ontario, Canada’s Rose City. Daily photo by Joe Barkovich.
