A Prayer for Cindy
Edited on Wed Aug-17-05 10:01 PM by pamela
May God bless you with discomfort...
at easy answers, half truths, and superficial relationships,
so that you may live deep within your heart.

May God bless you with anger...
at injustice, oppression, and exploitation of people,
so that you may work for justice, freedom and peace.

May God bless you with tears to shed...
for those who suffer from pain, rejection, starvation, and war,
so that you may reach out your hand to comfort them and to turn their pain into joy.

And may God bless you with enough foolishness...
to believe that you can make a difference in this world,
so that you can do what others claim cannot be done.

Franciscan Blessing

To quote Bruce Springsteen

"May your strength give us strength
May your faith give us faith,
May your hope give us Hope,
May your love give us love"

From the chorus to into the Fire from the album the Rising.
