Pause for Prayer: SATURDAY 8/28

When I woke up yesterday morning, Lord,

I noticed your shadow on the wall,

just across the room from where 

my head lay on my pillow:

The time, the light, the angle - all were perfect -

as your shadow shaped my early morning prayer...

 

    Let your shadow fall upon me, Lord,

        and follow me all day...

    Let the shadow of your sacrifice

        cover me in mercy...

 

    Let the shadow of your passion

        dim the folly of my sins... 

 

    Let the shadow of your innocence

        blot out my guilt and shame...

 

    Let the shadow of your suffering

        be the healing of my pain...

    Let the shadow of your nakedness

        conceal me in your grace...

    Let the shadow of your love

        eclipse my lonely nights and days...

 

    Let the shadow of your dying

        touch my living with your glory...

 

    Let the shadow of your cross

        shade my soul in lasting peace...

 

Amen.
