A prayer of peace
Many of us often mistake our own will for the Will of God. In our prayers, we insist on having things our way, forgetting that, in doing so, we, the humble, are trying to instruct the All-Wise God.
But so often, what we desire is not what God really desires for us.
That’s why I hope we learn to truly long for God’s will to be done in our lives.
He alone knows which trials will lead to our sanctification, and which blessings will give us the strength we need.
It's a beautiful thing to make this simple yet powerful prayer part of our daily lives, a prayer that can calm the soul and align our hearts with His purpose:
"Oh Lord my God, may your Will become the desire of my heart!"
Amen.
