Daily Devotion - Tuesday, October 19

Awaiting Illumination 2

From time to time I use this devotional time to share helpful thoughts other sojourners have penned. This week I am sharing thoughts and prayers from Marianne Williamson's book, Illuminata. She incorporates Christian, Judaic, Buddhist and New Age thought in a way that can be helpful for our daily living.

Today, an adaptation of a Morning Prayer.

“Good morning God,
This day is ours.

“May I stay centered on things that keep my spirit connection strong
in the midst of today's storms. Please enter where you already abide.

“May I reach to the core of myself and those I am with, looking beyond the masks we all wear of the illusions that are so much a part of life.

“May I be sensitive to the things which can contribute to a safer world where beauty and peace are sensed by others.

“Continue healing the broken pieces of self so that I may enjoy
this day that is ours.
Amen.”
