A SIMPLE SIGN IN DIFFICULT TIMES!

(November 26, 2013)

(From “Simple Words of Great Hope”)

Knowing I am not worthy of this,

I hold my heart and life out in an offering of bliss.

Feeling blessed in life and honored, hoping to share this grace,

Something beats out Hope and Spirit, with a humble need to embrace,

All of Creation, all of the human race!

Let me be worthy!

Let me help, not hurt.

Let me heal, letting loose of this love caught inside,

Going beyond selfishness or personal needs, turning the tide…

Help me face the weaknesses from which I hide.

Let me realize a greater Will,

And the promises that are to come still.

Let my life and existence be, if nothing more,

A Simple Sign of hope…

And let everyone know, if nothing more,

About my loving history and kinship

With Our Blessed Pope!
