Good Lord,
In my good and best moments I know:
I lean on You.
I believe in you
like a child relies on her father, his mother.
Do you want to trust?
But sometimes my daily life is unruly.
Periods of ebb and flow come and go.
Questions arise,
I can at most expect answers,
and I have to learn to believe and trust again and again.
This way I remain a lifelong student.
First I ask you:
Will you show me a way to tomorrow,
to the future.
And will you comfort and inspire me in this way,
by the power of Her who is the Comforter herself: Your Holy Spirit,
and through fellow human beings who are readable letters from You.
I will experience in amazement:
You're here. In You I live, move and have my being.
And I grow in confidence,
right through times of ebb and flow
towards the future.
Amen
