Lent: Day 21

I’ve been keeping a copy of this prayer close by. I find it helpful to read as a way of centering myself. It keeps me focused on the present when it can be so easy to get caught up in the ‘what if ’s’ of worry.

St. Theresa’s Prayer

May today there be peace within you.
May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be.
May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith.
May you use those gifts that you have received,
and pass on the love that has been given to you.
May you be content knowing you are a child of God.
Let this presence settle into your bones,
and allow your soul the freedom
to sing, dance, praise, and love.
It is there for each and every one of you.
