2015.07.05: faith of gratitude

He was amazed at their lack of faith. – Mk 6:6

let me not strive
for false security
nor food or shelter
nor fame or fortune
nor sense of belonging
for all can be taken away
at the whims of unjust rulers
and the fateful hand of death

cultivate in me, Lord
a virtue of gratitude
let me not covet
what i don’t have
but let me be grateful
for what i’ve been given
all i need is your love
you are enough for me
