Come into the hurting places

 

We are proud to announce that my prayer ‘Come into the Hurting Places’ has been published in the latest edition of the Faith Companion.




Come Into The Hurting Places: a prayer for those who suffer

Come into the hurting places if you will.

Come gently into the hurting places of my body, 

Caress then gently if you will,

Tenderly heal them if you will.

Come gently now into the hurting places of my heart.

Release the many unshed tears if you will,

Fill my vulnerability with your strength if you will.

Come gently now into the hurting places of my mind,

Touch each painful moment with love if you will, 

Lift my thoughts to higher places if you will.

Come gently now into the hurting places of my soul, 

Let your light pour into me if you will,

Give me the gifts of your spirit if you will.

Come into the hurting places if you Will

And make me whole.
