Mirror, Mirror ...

Through reflection on some of my recent frustrations with the decisions of the infirmed who are in my life I have come to understand that my own cowardice at answering God's calling in my life is engendering the fear and anger and shame.  I must embrace the gifts of God resident within myself and engage them in the holy purpose of loving others. Suffering is the path to love.

Heavenly Father forgive my self-indulgent timidity and pusillanimidity. Lord , grant me the courage to surrender to your will more completely. Holy Mother pray that I can see the world with refreshed sight and receive the divine grace of wisdom to understand.
