a prayer of trust that i need to say out loud. many of the people that i love are in pain, and need physical healing. i need to reaffirm my trust in God's amazing capacity to heal. i need to say it out loud. today.
Lord God
you have built such a stunning earth
teeming with so many human souls.
billions.
You know each one by name
by fingerprint
by scent.
You know every brain wave
every unspoken microscopic wish
and flit of a dream
that passes through every consciousness.
You do restoration work
in the disheveled cathedral
of every soul
to the extent
that You are allowed access.
it is Your heart's purpose
to rebuild and restore
to make all things pristine and new.
of course You can heal.
of course You can set right that which is in disrepair.
of course You can do wonder works and brilliances
with a mere shred of faith to work with.
let me be one of the believers today.
let me offer up the shred of faith.
let me pour out a fresh supply of raw hope.
may i be a truster today.
