A prayer for when you feel lost and uncertain, which might be a lot these days
My Lord God, I have no idea where I am going
I do not see the road ahead of me
I cannot know for certain where it will end
nor do I really know myself
My Lord God, I have no idea where I am going
I do not see the road ahead of me
I cannot know for certain where it will end
nor do I really know myself
Comments
does not mean that I am actually doing so
But I believe that the desire to please you
does in fact please you
And I hope I have that desire in all that I am doing
I hope that I will never do anything apart from that desire
And I know
though I may know nothing about it.
Therefore, will I trust you always,
though I may seem to be lost and in the shadow of death.
I will not fear, for you are ever with me,
and you will never leave me to face my perils alone.
~ “The Merton Prayer”
