Eternal One,
You ordain our trials and tribulations,
And we know there is always a reason.
We cannot presume to know Your mind,
We can only seek to find You in the process.
Â
Through pain and recovery, we vacillate,Â
Blaming You, while imploring You to provide a reason,
Crying out for healing, as we pray for blessed relief,
We still thank You for sparing us from worse.
Â
In these moments, as injury numbs our minds,
And medication blinds us to Your presence,
We ask for Your merciful intervention.
Â
Grant us rapid healing of body, spirit and mind,
Allow us to discover the purpose of this new journey,
And to understand the lessons You have laid before us.
Â
Help us to find the strength only You can grant,
And to use that strength to grow stronger than we were.
Â
Be our Rock and redeem us from the well of self-pity,
And grant us the ability to overcome this challenge …
Â
Amen,
And Amen.
Â
