Daily Prayer

Good Wednesday morning, my friends.
 
"Teach my heart this day where and how to find you."  That is the opening line of the prayer below.  Read it again and open your heart to Him.  "You have made me and re-made me."  Ain't that the truth.  We must always be open to how God wants to re-make us.
 
Have a great day.
 
Grace and peace be yours in abundance,
Bruce
 
 
 

Prayer of St Anselm

 

O Lord my God.

Teach my heart this day

where and how to find you.
 

You have made me and re-made me,

and you have bestowed on me

all the good things I possess,

and still I do not know you.
 

I have not yet done

that for which I was made.
 

Teach me to seek you,

for I cannot seek you

unless you teach me,

or find you

unless you show yourself to me.
 

Let me seek you in my desire;

let me desire you in my seeking.

Let me find you by loving you;

let me love you when I find you.
