I offer that prayer often and have over the course of many years.

There are many things posted today on this thread -—I only wish I had time to respond. My days are 24/7 in caregiving and moments of respite are few and I use them with care, because of my need for prayertime and for Scripture reading. Yet my mind and heart have been full of many thoughts about some things posted and I look forward to being able to make a few posts of my own before the day is past.

But—if God doesn’t will it, I’m OK with that.

In my 80+ years I have come to see that so much is in perception, in understanding and interpretation and that so much is lost where charity and love do not prevail, for as the beautiful Benedictine hymn says: “Where charity and love prevail, there God is always found”.

God is love and where there is love, (”TRUE love” ;-) —with apologies to Princess Bride)-—there is God, and then many good things can come from Him who loves us.
