Thought I would share this morning prayer by Sr. Pat Bergen, CSJ…
Gracious God, thank you for the gift of today.
Refresh me, invite me to discover your presence
in each person that I meet
and every event that I encounter.
Teach me when to speak and when to listen,
when to ponder and when to share.
In moments of challenge and decision
Attune my heart to the whisperings of your Wisdom.
As I undertake ordinary and unnoticed tasks,
Gift me with simple joy.
When my day goes well, may I rejoice.
When it grows difficult, surprise me with new possibilities.
When life is overwhelming, call me to Sabbath moments
to restore Peace and Harmony.
May my living today reveal your Goodness. Amen. “
wonderful! Thank you. “When to speak and when to listen..” my daily prayer!
