Lord God, Father of Life and Love, whose word is Truth and Peace, who bestows on us, in his greatness, an abundance of Grace and Mercy; hear my prayer. I love you, I adore you, I honor you; for, in you, all good things have and find their source, their fullness and perfection. How is it that in all the vast universe you, my God, should want me? You do not need me. You want me. I need you Lord. Without your Living Spirit I could not breathe. Without your blood your very life, sustaining me; my heart would not beat. Without you constantly thinking of me, I would cease to exist at all. You do not need me Lord, but you want me. You want me with you, you want me close to your side, you want me to sit with you because you love me. I am important to you, and you want me, and, for now, that's all that really matters. You desire me, you seek me, you wait for me, you want me. I run from you, I hide from you, I betray you, I deny you. Still, you pursue me, you catch me, you hold me, you love me. Through it all, you still want me. Help me want you as much as I need you. Help me need you as much as you want me. Amen
