We all walk about with secret fears and griefs,
with worries and problems unknown to those around us...
Help me be gentle today, Lord,
with all whose paths cross mine:
remind me that their burdens are at least
as many and as heavy as the ones I bear myself...

wow- I am just reading this now, but this matches my goal for today- made this morning, before 10am-
ReplyDeleteand I was able to achieve this goal, at least mostly, as far as I can tell-
and the "secret fears and griefs"-
yes, you are exactly on-
during the past couple of weeks I have "unlocked a door inside of me that I have been keeping locked and secret- trying to hide from others... "
the door is unlocked, and even slightly open, now-
right now it is very scary, but also hopeful-
God, please be with me and help me-
I really need your strength and your will- and please help me remember and keep with me all that
I heard and learned these past couple of weeks-
please God, help those that I met-
please give them the hope and strength to continue on and despite everything, see the hope.
...oh, and I forgot something...
