LONG
ROAD HOME
As
the years pass by, the journey shortens
and I come closer to You, my God Creator
and my Lord Redeemer.
Keep
me, Jesus, on the narrow path,
the straight path, the direct path,
the golden path to Your heavenly kingdom.
Let
me not weary, let me not drift,
let me not change course, let me not be diverted from
my final beautiful goal: eternal unity with You!
You
know only too well that I have
in
the past slipped into the sordid paths
of the Devious Deceiver, Satan, and into
the dark woods of sin.
Please
forgive me for those evil wayward wanderings!
Forgive
me for being so distracted
by the busyness of the world that I have often neglected
You and the spiritual journey
which is the only thing that finally matters.
Thank
you for all those who, by good example, support, and
through prayers for me,
have given strength, courage and focus,
and ultimately forward progress, to my life's journey.
Bless them all please, as they blessed me,
and let us travel together toward our heavenly destination!
As
the leaves of time fall and rustle round my footsteps,
Jesus, help me keep my golden goal in mind, and help
me hurry always onward to the end of my traveling,
at the shining Palace of Your Divine Heart.
All this I pray in earnest humility,
Amen
