St. Arbucks Chapel – October 29, 2025
Fr Richard Rohr, one of my spiritual mentors, wrote a prayer that touched me deeply. I share it with you and invite you to pray it with me.
Loving God, we love how you love us.
We love how you free us.
We love what you have given us and what you have created to surround us.
Help us to recognize, and to rejoice in, what has been given,
Even in the midst of what has not been given.
Help us not to doubt all that you have given us,
Even when we feel our very real shortcomings.
We thank you for the promise and sign of Your love in the Eternally Risen Christ,
Pervading all things in the universe, unbound by any of our categories of logic or theology.
We offer you ourselves back in return.
We offer our bodies, our little lives, our racing minds, and our restless hearts,
Into this one wonderous circle of Love that is You.
My life is no longer just about me, but it is all about You!
Amen and Amen.
