Prayer in
time of pain
Jesus, my good shepherd,
I don’t remember anymore the pain of yesterday.
I don’t know about the pain of tomorrow.
But, please, help me handle and accept the pain of today.
Give me the strength to bear it.
Help me remember your cross,
your prayer to the Father, your attitude.
Free me from the tendency
to feel sorry for myself,
from my need to complain about
things and people around me.
Guide me to see your love made present
in the faces of the people who care for me.
Help me discover in the voices that break
the silence of my day the comfort and
promise of a life renewed.
Amen |
