Monday Morning Offering: 7/29

Coffee in the Morning by G. Mendoza

Good morning, good God!

Today, Lord, I offer you:

   the hurt in my heart 
      most in need of your healing...

   the confusion in my mind
       most in need of your counsel...

   the thoughts in my imagination
      most in need of your cleansing... 

   the sin in my soul
       most in need of your mercy...

   the duplicity in my dealings
      most in need of your justice... 

   the foolishness in my words and deeds
      most in need of your wisdom...

   the lies in my speech
      most in need of your truth...

   the selfishness in my jealousy
      most in need of your humility...  

   the anger I hold on to
       most in need of your forgiveness...
  
   the emptiness within me 
      most in need of your deep presence...

   the sorrow in my sadness
      most in need of your compassion...

   the gaps in my hope
      most in need of deeper trust in you...

This morning, Lord,
    I offer you the places in my life
      where I most need you to bless me,
         forgive me and make me whole again... 

Accept my simple offering, Lord,
   this morning, all day long
      and through the week ahead..
