Uplifting Prayers

Dear God,

I resist meditation, I resist prayers, I resist my

     spiritual practice at times, for I am not

     comfortable with the empty spaces.

I know, dear God, that I am out of balance with

     my spiritual nature.

I need to be healed.

Please heal me.

Bring me to the silence within myself, and give

     me comfort there.

Show me the fierce and quiet center of Your

     love, which is within me.

Thank You very much.

Amen.

Marianne Williamson
