Lord, help me to unclutter my life



Good Tuesday morning, my friends.

A pretty hectic morning here, so no time for a sermon.  I can feel your disappointment from here!  :-)

I did find this prayer that helps me to put things in perspective today.  I hope it helps you too.


Amazing Grace and Eternal Peace be yours,
Bruce


Lord, help me to unclutter my life,
To lead me in the direction of simplicity,
Teach me to listen to my heart,
Teach me to welcome change, instead of fearing it.

Lord, I give you these stirrings inside me.
I give you my discontent, my restlessness, my doubt.
I give you my despair, I give you all my longings I hold inside. 

Help me to listen to these signs of change, of growth; 
To listen seriously and follow wherever they lead,
Through the breathtaking empty space of your open door.

Amen!
