Prayer for the Hospital

Prayer for the Hospital

Lord,
​
When did you ever fix anything?
Not the faucet, or my broken heart,
not the suffering of the refugees. Never.

You only offered change.
You only opened a line.
You only gave us the opportunity to try.

Today,
break my heart.
Open my hands.
Today let me see you in every room.

Today let me step off the edge
and follow you
into whatever
unexpected grace
you offer us.

Amen.
