FATHER GOD, THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRESENCE THAT
PENETRATES THE DEEP, SCARY PLACES INSIDE ME SO
I NEVER HAVE TO GO THERE ALONE. BY YOUR SPIRIT ,
FREE ME FROM OBSESSIVE THINKING THAT HOLDS MY
MIND HOSTAGE . HELP ME TO GROW AND LEARN FROM
MY ADVERSITY. HOW COULD I GIVE COMPASSION IF I
NEVER KNEW PAIN? HOW COULD I OFFER HOPE IF I
NEVER FELT DESPAIR? HOW COULD I APPRECIATE
KINDNESS IF I NEVER EXPERIENCED CRUELTY AND
INDIFFERENCE? HOW COULD I IMPART WISDOM IF
I NEVER STUMBLED ON A PATHWAY LITTERED WITH
MISTAKES AND WRONG CHOICES? HOW COULD I FATHOM
THE FULL MEASURE OF YOUR MERCY AND PARDON IF I
DESERVED IT ? THANK YOU LORD, FOR THESE BITTER
LIFE LESSONS THAT CLEANSE THE PALATE AND MAKE
ME BETTER ABLE TO SAVOR JOY.
AMEN
