A prayer for a sincere heart

July 30, 2018 by Chris Gribble

Blessed are ….

A prayer for a sincere heart

Blessed is the bruised and broken,
Beloved, you bear the scars of faithfulness,
May your healing be complete.

Blessed is the one who loves justice,
Beloved, continue to burn for what is true,
Be one who loves the least of these.

Blessed is the one who hopes for a different future,
Beloved look at adversity with a glint of courage in your eye,
Be one who never gives up.

Blessed is the one where failure isn’t the last word,
Beloved look death in the eye.
Be one who chooses life.

Today I am going to start …

Today I am going to start living
As only I can live,
I am going to walk in the bush
Listen lovingly to friends,
Take time to hear the birds sing
Love my wife
Be present for my children,
And, wonder at this precious gift
Of life and dreams and time,
Just today, is all I have,
Today I am going to live.
