ECCLESIOLOGICAL ETCHINGS

December 9, 2019

Prayer for the Week:

In the shadows of the valley,

where light is eclipsed

by the height of walls

that feel insurmountable,

give me peace.

In the shadows of the valley,

where hopelessness lingers,

provide me a vision

of the possible

announced by the prophets.

In the shadows of the valley,

where the weight of despair

pulls me deeper,

bestow a hint

of the liberating light

of an angel’s announcement.

You are present in the valley

of the shadow of death,

where hopelessness

and despair reside.

You are with us,

for your gifts of stability

offer a reassuring presence.

No matter where we are;

No matter the circumstance

of the moment;

No matter what

others might claim,

I look for a spark

to illuminate

even a corner of the dark.

Keep me looking;

Keep me believing;

Keep me from assuming that

the shadows of this valley

will forever consume me.

Amen.
