Evening Prayer Bump!


O Lord,
some days,
when I feel so frightened
or angry,
or stressed out,
and I wonder how to respond
and be true to my calling
as someone who longs to follow you
with all my heart,
thank you for reminding me
that you are my strength,
that you are the one who steadies my steps,
that you are the one
who holds my hand,
and walks me through it all
even in that darkest midnight
when I see no hope at all.

And in the refining fire
in the fire of your transforming love,
open me up,
make me more transparent to your light,
and in my confusion,
help me not to say
my will, not yours.
May my life reflect your will, not mine,
this day and always,
Amen.
