THOMAS MERTON'S PRAYER

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, and the fact that I think that I am following your will 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 that if I do this you will lead me by the right road 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.

Thomas Merton, "Thoughts in Solitude"



Psalm 37:5 Commit your work to the LORD,and your plans will be established.


A good woman is hard to find, and worth far more than diamonds. (The Message Bible). . . . She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.  Proverbs 31 (NIV).

God is a Spirit (a spiritual Being) and those who worship Him must worship Him in Spirit and in truth (reality). John 4:24 (Amplified Bible)
