2015.04.17: the will of God

Gamaliel said, “For if this endeavor or this activity is of human origin, it will destroy itself. But if it comes from God, you will not be able to destroy them; you may even find yourselves fighting against God.” – Acts 5:38-39


even the mightiest of rulers
seek the counsel of God
before their greatest labors
lest they endeavor in vain

yet the mountains move
in the face of faith
the size of a mustard seed
seek to do the the will of God

2015.01.27: just for today

For whoever does the will of God is my brother and sister and mother. Mk 3:35

oh loving Father,
i am so grateful
for your boundless love
flowing abundantly
from deep within me
spilling forth into the world
i long to know your will
so that i may do your will
but not being perfect
i may never know
perfectly
your will for me
and even if i could know
i may never do
perfectly
your will for me
grant me this o loving Father
just for today
let me do your will
let me love you
with all my heart
and all my soul
let me love my neighbors
as i love myself
with the unconditional love
with which you pour into me
it is only a small wish
not forever
or even the rest of my life
but just for today
let me do your will
as Jesus taught us
