Dear God, you deliver me from all calamity, worry, trial, care, hardship. You take away what is bothersome. You grant me strength to face all that comes my way. Even when I fear what seems insurmountable, even when woe presses in upon me, I weather the storm and upon its passing I am calm and safe.
In such times, let me properly ascribe my well-being to you: it is your gift to me. Grace.
You granted me strength to persevere, and you now grant me ease.
Let me not squander this gift. Let me pass it on to another. Let me be a flowing, clear river, and not a stagnant pool. Let your love flow from me to my fellows.
May your will be done today. May I seek to make this so.
(Letter #857)
