picchick Posted August 18, 2004 Share Posted August 18, 2004 Lord, sometimes when I don't have a physical illness, there's something deep inside of me- heaviness of spirit, sorrow, sadness in my heart. Sometimes I don't even have to tell anybody because they can see it on my face. Sometimes I fight so hard to hide it. But that doesn't chage a thing on the inside. Change my heart, O God, and make me ever new! Some of the stuff I know by experience brings me so much grief, but Lord, increase my knowledge of Your love by experience. Help me to experience the sorrow and sadness I feel in communion with Your sorrow- with the sadness and sorrow You felt- and what others feel, so that the hope of passing over to joy will sustain me. There is so much sadness in our culture filled with "worldly sorrow" that leads to death. Make my sorrow a "godly sorrow" that brings repentance, leads to salvation and leaves no regret. No regrets...yes, Lord... (see 2 Corinthians 7:8-11) ~~Fr. Stan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
