To see the good in what you have been given

Kathleen Norris
November 2021 (Vol. XXXIV, No. 10)
... prayer is not asking for what you think you want but asking to be changed in ways you can't imagine. To be made more grateful, more able to see the good in what you have been given instead of always grieving for what might have been.

I believe in the sun even when it is not shining.
I believe in love even when I do not feel it.
I believe in God even when God is silent.
