Wholeness - a state of being complete in God. It can be easy to bring parts of ourself to God. It can be a lot harder to allow Him into other places. Some places feel better left in the dark than exposed to the light. And, yet, He longs for us to be complete in Him. To live as He made us to be. To let His light bring healing to every part of us. This prayer has become dear to me. It sits by the chair where I often spend time with Jesus in the morning. It's a simple prayer I love to pray in a choice to surrender all the parts of me to the God who made them. To bring all of me into His loving light. I pray this might be a blessing to you as you walk with the One who is, little by little, making you whole by His love. Prayer for Wholeness (Excerpts from Psalms for Praying – Nan Merrill) Arise O Divine Love Confront all within us that is not whole. You are the Promise of our wholeness. Help us to learn to trust You, To untangle the webs of illusion that we have made. Let all the fragmented parts of our being gather around You, Help us to face them one by one. Love’s healing presence will mend all that has been broken, And we shall be made whole. Teach us to be patient with ourselves, That we might offer the gift of patience to others. Awaken us to all that is holy, All that is sacred, That our lives may be a reflection of You. May we risk the unknown and live into the Mystery that is You. Praises be to the Blessed One, the very Breath of our breath, the very Heart of our heart. Father of all fathers, Lead us into the wholeness our hearts long for, in the Name of Your Dear Son Jesus through the power of Your Holy Spirit.
