We must come to the end of a long journey and see that the stranger we meet there is no other than ourselves - which is the same as saying we find Christ in him." <br /><br />My Lord God,<br />I have no idea where I am going.<br />I do not see the road ahead of me.<br />I cannot know for certain where it will end....<br />Nor do I really know myself,<br />and the fact that I think I am following your will<br />does not mean that I am actually doing so.<br />But I believe that the desire to please you does<br />in fact please you.<br />And I hope I have that desire in all that I am doing.<br />I hope that I will never do anything apart from that desire.<br />And I know that if I do this,<br />You will lead me by the right road, though <br />I may know nothing about it.<br />Therefore will I trust you always though<br />I may seem lost in the shadow of death.<br />I will not fear, for you are ever with me,<br />and you will never leave me to face my perils alone.<br />Thomas Merton – Pilgrim prayer<br /><br />Abrazo!<br />SilSilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14206993775726151899noreply@blogger.com
