Monday Morning Offering: 6/26

Image: George Mendoza

Good morning, good God!

Today, Lord...

I offer you the musings of my mind

and pray that you’ll enlighten me

with reason, truth and prudence…

I offer you the words I speak,
the words I write and post,

and pray you'll sift them through the sieve

of charity and wisdom...

I offer you my soul's desires,
my passions, thirsts and hungers,

and pray you'll tend and tame me

with integrity and grace…

I offer you the things I do,
day in, day out - my deeds,

and pray you'll teach my heart to give

with selfless generosity…

I offer you my attitude,
my feelings and my moods

and pray you’ll heal and lift me up

with hope, in peace, to joy...

I offer you my weaknesses, 
my failings, faults and sins

and pray you’ll pardon all of them

with mercy undeserved…

I offer you today, O Lord, 
the whole of who I am:

bend me, mold and shape and change me:

recreate me in your love…

I offer you the week ahead, 
its trials and its troubles:
I pray you'll stand right by my side
to hold me fast and faithful...  

Amen.
