Higher Ground

Today marks the 5th month anniversary of completing the Camino for me. Given the time difference, 5 months ago, I was depleted - drained of everything within me.

I have spent the last 5 months searching for the reason, or the Big Change as some would call it. Yet in reflection, I have done the complete opposite that one would expect of a pilgrim.

And so tonight, in remembering the journey I undertook, I write this prayer:

Lord, I offer you my life - my hands, my feet, my tongue, my eyes and my ears. But more importantly, I offer you my heart, that which I have kept contain in a glass box. Thinking it much safer to be admired but not touch.

I know in that offering you my heart, I am opening myself to pains, hurts and quite possibly much suffering. But I also believe that because You love me, You would do all within Your power from allowing that to happen to me.

And in knowing that and still giving it up to You, I offer myself to the miracles that awaits me in accordance to Your Will be done. May You bless this gift and accept it for the rest of the days of my life.

Amen.
