Prayers of compassion are being said all over this hurting world.
I pray and I pray
because it is sometimes the only thing I can do.
I pray not for answers and aware that people and situations do not always change but I pray for the assurance of God’s love for me and His compassion for us all.
Life can be like a maze that I have to find my way through. Worry does not help because things work out as \i just keep going and doing the best I can.
I am learning to empty my heart at night and let go of all that did not get done because I want not to be cluttered up for the night or for the morning when I want my heart to be open and fresh for the good things the day will bring.
I pray for peace and calm within me and around me.
I like to believe that God puts people into my life as gifts. He knows I need to learn to love with compassion and grace. Some of these people are hurting and that hurt is felt within me. Life is a challenge to be brave and kind and to trust and to believe.
“If instead of a gem, or even a flower,
we should cast the gift of a loving thought into the heart of a friend,
that would be giving as the angels give.”
-George MacDonald
