Evening Prayer – 5 August 2021

The sun has long ago set and the Vesper Lights flicker and glow
After a long, two-day journey, Pixie and I are back home

The past week has been stressful with hospitals, rehab facilities, and trying to help Dad navigate the system
And Lord, thank you for keeping me safe on roads filled with angry and inconsiderate drivers
Words cannot express how thankful I am for my dear wife and partner in faith and life, Denise
As she continues to help Dad, my prayer is that he will regain his strength
I am also thankful for two dear friends who were planning on spending the evening with us on their way to a funeral
Dinner was ready for me, along with wonderful conversation
Now as my incredibly sleepy eyes grow heavy
I lift this humble prayer to you
Dona Nobis Pacem
Grant Us Peace
A wee prayer from the heart of your Padre…
