Prayer

My mornings always start out right,
I wish I could hold onto that focus for the rest of the day.


Dear God,
I am full of wishes,
full of desires,
full of expectations.
Some of them may be realized, many may not,
but in the midst of all my satisfactions
and disappointments,
I hope in you.
I know that you will never leave me alone
and will fulfill your divine promises.
Even when it seems that things are not 
going my way,
I know that they are going your way
and that in the end your way is the best way for me.
O Lord, strengthen my hope,
especially when many wishes are not fulfilled.
Let me never forget that your name is Love.
Amen.

~Henry M. Nouwen~

Hugging you today!
Be well, stay safe.
💖
