May God bless us with discomfort …
At easy answers, half truths,
And superficial relationships,
So that we may live deep within our hearts.
May God bless us with anger …
At injustice, oppression, and
Exploitation of people,
So that we may work
For justice, freedom, and peace.
May God bless us with tears …
To shed for those who suffer from
Pain, rejection, starvation, and war.
So that we may reach out our hands
To comfort them
And to turn their pain into JOY.
And may God bless us with enough
Foolishness …
To believe that
We can make a difference in this world,
So that we can DO
What others claim cannot be done.
Amen.
