Ruined Than Changed
Lent 2023 | Day 16 | Thursday, March 09
Week No. 03
I let go of my desire for power and control.
-
Welcome, welcome, welcome.
I welcome everything that comes to me today because I know it is for my healing.I welcome all thoughts, feelings, emotions, persons, situations, and conditions.
I let go of my desire for power and control.
I let go of my desire for affection, esteem, approval and pleasure.
I let go of my desire for survival and security.
I let go of my desire to change any situation, condition, person or myself.
I open to the love and presence of God and God’s action within.
Amen.
Quote Of The Day
We would rather be ruined than changed. We would rather die in our dread then climb the cross of the moment and let our illusions die.
- W.H. Auden
Song Of The Day
Prompt Of The Day

What have you learned / how have you grown from “climbing up this mountain with your hands wide open” (or, letting go of the cliffs you cling to)?
