Losing my idols...


Good Thursday morning, my friends.

The prayer below is challenging and dangerous.  It hands everything over to God, and strips us of our idols.  I don't even recognize the idols in my life sometimes until I am forced to give them up.  Personally, I pray this with trepidation, and perhaps not completely sincerely.  But with His Grace, this prayer will become more sincere, and the trepidation will decrease.


Grace and peace be yours in abundance,
Bruce



Take, O Lord, and receive my entire liberty, my memory, my understanding and my whole will. 

All that I am and all that I possess You have given me: I surrender it all to You to be disposed of according to Your will. 

Give me only Your love and Your grace; with these I will be rich enough, and will desire nothing more.

--Ignatius Loyola Suscipe
