Lord, you have shown
your grace. I come to this place of prayer, recognizing that I have come to you
at so many different stages in the journey that is my life. I have struggled
with doubt and loss as I question your presence in the midst of my pain and the
pain of those I love. Thank you for the patience to let your love seep into the
broken places of my life. I have come to you with uncertainties about what I
believe, what you want me to do with my life and how I might serve you. Thank
you for helping me to honestly doubt, so that the question of faith and
servanthood might have an honest answer rather than an apathetically accepted
one. I have come before you with a joy that knows no bounds in the celebration
of love and the fulfillment of dreams. Thank you that you have given me the
grace to share the joy with others. I have come to you in my life from a
variety of pathways. Yet, I can see that each path is part of the same journey
to be part of your people. Your people have a mission to bring your love to the
world through the one whom we strive to follow, Jesus Christ the Lord. Amen.
