Lead Me Out of My Doubts and Fears

Eternal God,
lead me now
    out of the familiar setting
        of my doubts and fears,
    beyond my pride

        and my need to be secure
into a strange and graceful ease
    with my true proportions
        and with yours;
that in boundless silence
    I may grow
        strong enough to endure
            and flexible enough to share
                your grace.

I feel like each day is so unpredictable. Often times I can tell I am bracing myself for some kind of crisis to I can be ready- and not freak out. I want to mediate on this prayer you have posted. Fully embracing that all the comes- He will be there leading me. Thanks Heather!

I'm glad they are speaking to you. I've found some of them to be really powerful, and they draw me back through out the day. I love this season of lent for the simple, quite meditation that I find myself in.
