My
Lord God, I have no idea where I am going. I do not see the road ahead
of me, nor do I know myself. And the fact that I think I am following
your will does not mean that I am actually doing so.
But
I do believe that the desire to please you does in fact please you. And
I hope that I will never do anything apart from that desire. And I know
that if I do this, You will lead me by the right road though I may know
nothing about it. Therefore, I will trust you always.
Though
I may seem to be lost and in the shadow of death, I will not fear, for
You are ever with me and You will never leave me to face my struggles
alone.
- Thomas Merton, OCSCO (1915-1968)
