bit o' faith

a prayer of the Northumbria Celtic Community:

Lord, you have always given
bread for the coming day;
and though I am poor,
today I believe.

Lord, you have always given
strength for the coming day;
and though I am weak,
today I believe.

Lord, you have always given
peace for the coming day;
and though of anxious heart,
today I believe.

Lord, you have always kept
me safe in trials;
and now, tried as I am,
today I believe.

Lord, you have always marked
the road for the coming day;
and though it may be hidden,
today I believe.

Lord, you have always lightened
this darkness of mine;
and though the night is here,
today I believe.

Lord, you have always spoken
when time was ripe;
and though you be silent now,
today I believe.


So true, but still hard to remember to trust, - in big things, but even in the little things too like last-minute assignments.. !

  1. oh for that ripe time. He's good, and so is the journey of learning to trust, wait and believe. Love you Jasweigan girl.
