Lord,
Touch me as you touched Daniel
in answer to his prayers of grief and pain,
Let me know the nearness of heaven
and teach me how to pray again,
touch my heart to express feelings long hidden away,
lost deep within as shiftless vapors with no identity,
give me words that shape them, give them meaning,
creating form for me, my heart, my petitions,
grant me grace to be honest with you,
and to give myself that same permission,
to be messy, complicated, known and unknown,
all of me, wholly surrendered to you,
Touch with me your vision and comfort,
and hope for what’s to come,
Don’t leave me where I am,
but let me enjoy the process with you.
I love you and I trust You Lord,
Amen.
