A Prayer When Life is Rough Seas and Cloudy Skies

Gentle Spirit which passes through all things, 

I invite you to pass through me now. 

I am searching for the still waters you promised and the sunny skies which hide behind the grayness. 

Please help me be one with this disappointing time so I may experience the intensity of what I need to discover. I look for someone or something and there is nothing. 

Nothing as I search to one the end of one direction and the same when I search the other. 

I look again and again for the hint of something beyond the gray, uncaring nothingness. 

There, it was there all the time, 

but I had to try over and over before it was revealed. 

There is a ship full of Light in port. 

Is it waiting for me to board? 

Where will it carry me if I just step aboard. 

I'll never know unless I move from my stuck place and go toward the Light. 

Wait for me, 

I'm on my way.
