Years ago, my maternal grandmother gave me this beautiful prayer.
Remind Me, God
Dear God, when I am lonely and…
Perhaps I feel despair…
Let not my ailing heart forget…
That you hear every prayer…
Remind me that no matter what….
I do or fail to do…
There still is hope for me as long…
As I have faith in you….
Let not my eyes be blinded by….
Some folly I commit..
But help me to regret my wrong…
And to make up for it….
Inspire me to put my fears upon a hidden shelf…
And in the future never to…
Be sorry for myself….
Give me the restful sleep I need…
Before another dawn….
And bless me in the morning with….
The courage to go on.
