Preparing to prepare
Tomorrow we embark on a journey anew.
We are always “on the way,” but during these 40 days we are invited to take a closer look at how well we are travelling.
Maybe we need to lighten our load, walk more deliberately, more steadfastly, or reach out more generously to others on the road.
Let us pray to be open to what the Lord is telling us to do, and ask Him to give us the courage and grace to make those changes.
In this pain
is Your call
to look on You
deep within me
and remain with You
in the silence
where You speak
and the darkness
where You wait.
O Heart of Light
hidden here, but
calling to my own
clouded heart!
Clear the cluttered
chambers – empty
them utterly, so that
in them may echo
the rhythm of Your own
Heart, beating steadily
with love
for me…
and amen.
