A Prayer For The Light Of Hope
Most Precious Lord Jesus, Gentle And Wonderful God,
Truly Awesome And Ever-present Holy Spirit,
Precious Lord Jesus, I love you.
When I think there is no way to deal with things as they are, show me the
way.
When I begin to think there is no hope, show me how you are the hope of
ages past.
When I think there is no light, show me the light of your truth, your
love, and your grace.
When I think everything is finished, show me your work has only just
begun.
When I think there is no chance of anything happening, show me your mighty
hand that formed the mountains and gathered together the water of the
seas.
For when I gaze upon the mountains remind me of your power to move the
mountains in my life.
When I have lost hope, remind me how you came into the world to give me
hope everlasting.
When I begin to wonder if anything good will ever happen, stand by me and
show me the power of your love at work in even the darkest of moments.
When I think I have been defeated, show me your victory.
When setbacks occur, push me forward.
When losses take place, pull me forward to see your eternal gain.
When I think I can't make it, scream at me to keep going, to keep at it,
and to never give up or give in.
In your grace and in your love, may I always be humble, may I always want
to be your child, and may I always be able to do the work you have set out
for me to do.
All these things I humbly pray in the name of my most Blessed Lord Jesus
Christ, my Mighty God, and my Ever-present Holy Spirit upon whom I can
rely.
Amen. |
