Draw
me today into fresh encounters with Jesus, O God.
Make
me a servant of love
so
that others may know how much You love them
and
I may know how much You love me.
Let
me not be afraid of new pastures,
whether
they be green or brown or parched.
And
as I pass through whatever the day’s valleys,
keep
my head lifted up to the mountain,
from
whence my help comes.
Never
let me forget the people Jesus welcomed…
the greedy and the great,
the bad and the good,
the respected and the cheats.
Even
as the world becomes more callous and chaotic,
may
I never underestimate Your capacity
to
fashion the miraculous from the monstrous,
even
to make me a choice masterpiece
from
the mire and the clay.
