Lord, You know my heart, my soul, my desires, all that is created in me. I would return the love that caused creation to You and to those around me. Is there an earthly  guide for my travel to You? I pray to find him or her. I fall short my attempts to do Your will and serve Love by loving in return.

Lord Jesus, I know You acquiesced to the trial and path toward the Cross. Is that my current journey? Is it my part in our family to be misunderstood and scorned in my pursuit of You? Have I become blinded to true and better ways of finding Your truth? Do I return You love in ways unintelligible to those around me, especially my spouse?

I pray for guidance, Lord. I pray for acceptance of Your will and that even now in the midst of renting emotions, I may serve this particular path well, because it is part of Your plan. Amen.
