Tonight's prayer was inspired by today's snowfall
and some blooms I cut from a beautiful Easter basket,
a gift from a friend...
When snow in April
chills my hope of spring,
when cloudy skies
rain down on my parade,
when summer's heat
drains dry the running stream
and when falling leaves
remind me: all things pass...
Then send me jonquils in the snow,
give me sunlight at the dawn,
refresh my soul with flowing grace
and give me hope in every season
that you, Lord, are my joy,
my way, my truth, my life...
Protect me, Lord, while I'm awake
and watch over me while I sleep
that awake, I might keep watch with you
and asleep, rest in your peace...
Amen.
Tonight's prayer and image are simple,
as is this simple instrumental piece:
may it lead us all to prayer...
