Today’s Reflection:  Prayer

Lord,
I ask:
“What if it doesn’t work?”
You reply:
“Trust the process.”

I shake my head and ask:
“What if it fails?”
You reply:
“Believe it’s all leading somewhere.”

Back and forth we go,
Me asking my worried questions,
You issuing your patient replies
until finally I ask:
“What if I am afraid?”
You reply:
“Know I am right here.”

Amen.—Gretchen Crowder, Campus Minister at Jesuit College Preparatory School of Dallas

Today’s Reflection: Morning Prayer – 

Lord, give us grace

to come to you;

not merely as

a member of a crowd,

curious to see a show,

but with a true desire

to encounter you,

to know your love,

to find your peace,

to be made whole,

to enter into the new life

of your kingdom.

Meet us; draw us to yourself.. — Bill Braviner, Anglican Archdeacon of Halifax, UK.

Today’s Reflection: Lord, what am I when compared to this flower? What are you in giving this flower to me? How can I live my life to notice these simple gifts? The simple beauty of the flower stirs my need to know you better. I pray today, God, not to pretend to know you but to wait patiently as you reveal yourself to me over time. — from The Sacred Garden.

Today’s Reflection: Thank you, Lord Jesus Christ,
For all the benefits and blessings which you have given me,
For all the pains and insults which you have borne for me.
Merciful Friend, Brother and Redeemer,
May I know you more clearly,
Love you more dearly,
And follow you more nearly,
Day by day. — St. Richard of Chichester’s Prayer.
