TREASURES


Lay not up to yourselves treasures here on earth
where rust, and moth consume,
and thieves break through and steal.
For where your treasure is,
There also your heart will be.
---- Matthew 6:19

When any worldly loss occurs, of goods, friends, health,
or whatever else, please keep me aware
that is it just that: a worldly loss.

Help me to take it in stride, with my eye on the stars.
Let me remember that You will never send me any problem, loss or set-back of any kind whatsoever,
but that You are here, at my side,
ready to give me whatever strength, hope, grace and vision necessary to see me through the challenge.

Let me not forget that my hand is in Yours,
and that there is nothing I cannot endure
because no challenge of any kind
is too great for me to solve with Your help.

Please accept my prayer for all people everywhere
who are facing fears and losses and bad news
at this time.

Please give others the insight and the confidence in You,
remembering that You are always with us - always
as You have promised.

All this I pray to You my God,

Amen
