Prayer by Charles de Foucauld
In my office I have a poster in front of my desk with this beautiful prayer of abandonment. It is most appropriate during these final days of Lent, and I thought to share it with you. I hope you are blessed by it as much as I have been. Candace
Father,
I abandon myself into your hands;
Do with me what you will
Whatever you may do,
I thank you;
I am ready for all, I accept all.
Let only your will be done in me,
And in all your creatures-
I wish no more than this, O Lord.
Into your hands
I commend my soul;
I offer it to you with all the love of my heart,
For I love you, Lord,
And so need to give myself,
To surrender myself into your hands
Without reserve,
And with boundless confidence,
For you are my Father.
Charles de Foucauld
My prayer, too. How perfect at this time.
