A Wanderer's Prayer

Dear God, I love you, I love you, I love you. I love you more than anything. There are many things that make me feel good, but of all those things, you make me feel the most at peace, you give me the greatest fulfillment, you provide me love that is most everlasting. I love you. I cannot explain the great things you do for me, the peace and assurance you provide me, the unconditional love that you continue to provide me even as I turn from you again and again and again. You are always there when I have doubts, you are always there when my luck is down, you are always there when I am feeling low, you are always there, even when I separate from you and can’t feel your presence. I experience your love directly and through the love and generous works of others. When I am separate from you and can’t feel your presence, I am saddened, worried, frightened, constantly doubting myself, shrouded in a sea of negative emotion that sucks the positive light out of me. I worry, worry, worry, worry. I think about all the ways my life should be that isn’t, I think of all the things I don’t have that I want and worry, I become filled with these negative emotions as my heart yearns for the things of the world that I want but don’t have. I fill up with jealousy towards others who have what I want but don’t have. The negative emotions build up and up and up. But then, but then, one moment of your love, one moment of your assurance, one reminder that you have a wonderful plan for me and have set me on a wonderful journey. I start to realize that I have all I need and that is you. I start to harken back to all the times I have been blessed, all the positive things I have done, all the positive experiences that has graced me, all the good in my life. I am happy, I am happy that you God bless me. One touch of you is enough. Lord I love you God, amen.
