August 4, 2011

Some days sadness creeps over us,

Like a blanket covering our bodies

And our faces until we feel we cannot breathe,

But we will surely suffocate from the emotions

That stifle our ability to live.

Lord, comfort us.

Some days the joy seems never ending

And we feel completely comfortable in our own being,

Knowing ourselves to be loved

And to be capable of love.

Lord, help us to extend these moments.

Most days are somewhere in between

When we do not feel terribly sad,

But long for the happiness that we know to be fleeting.

Help us, O Lord, to trust in you in all our days.

Amen.
