Day 64

I lived my life checked out and disconnected,
and I blamed You for my pain.

I saw a father who represented You
make all the wrong the moves, and I thought
that meant I could resent the hell out of You
and Your damn Church.

I still hold all this anger inside, Help me to let it go.
There's no one to fight, no one to yell at.  Just slowly
imploding with resentment. 

May I let go of fear and let in Your love. 
May I be compassionate instead of pointing the angry finger.  Amen.

Day 63

I am restless O Lord My God.
A sleepless night really shows me
the importance of peace of mind.
Grant me the strength to get through the day
fully present to myself and to others around me.
Be in my aching muscles and tired bones.

O Creator, put my anxiety at ease and help me to trust in You.

Please grant me pardon for speaking ill of others
and become more compassionate to those who struggle.
May I examine my own actions and words
before I project my dissatisfaction to others.  Amen.

Day 62

Creator, breather life into me today.
Help me let go of my ego,
so I can open myself in being present to others.

Help me to break the cycle of violence that has been
passed through the hands of my ancestors.  Help me
to stop judging myself and those nearest and closest to me. 
Help me to love with a joyous freedom that only comes from a life
grounded in Your life, a life without fear.
Amen.

Day 61

For Sat:

Thank You Lord for another day of being present to myself and others.  Amen.
