A Prayer for Today

Post to Twitter

I borrowed this from my friend Matt’s blog. Check him out here and see what awesome adventure he is up to.  This is going to be my prayer for over the next several months and I challenge you to consider what areas perhaps you need to be a little more uncomfortable in.

 

“May the Lord bless you with discomfort at easy answers,

half truths and superficial relationships, so that you may live 

deep within your heart.

 

May God bless you at anger, at injustice, oppression, and

exploitation of people so that you may work for justice,

freedom and peace.

 

May God bless you with tears that shed for those who suffer

from pain, rejection, starvation, and war, so that you may reach

out your hand and comfort them so that their pain may be turned

to joy.

 

And may God bless you with enough foolishness to believe that you

can make a difference in this world so that you can do what others

claim cannot be done.”
