Lord,
thank you for reaching my heart,
loosening my lips,
unlocking words
to talk with you,
to pray,
confide,
whisper,
wonder,
cry,
for confidence in your love,
for showing me my limits and lack
by your kindness, not to my shame,
so that I can ask, seek, and knock.
My reason has failed me,
your loving kindness has broken through,
time and again,
I bless you for faith,
softening, circumcising this heart of stone,
and I dare to believe now,
that you are so good,
you will answer.
I accept your terms,
I pray now your will, not my own,
trusting you know best,
with unclenched hands
ready to surrender all and receive
your best for my ultimate good,
even when I don’t understand.
Help me, teach continuously how to pray,
I love you Lord.
Amen.
