Heard in Prayer:

Child of mine:
You say that you have not done enough to match my grace.

My Grace is sufficient; that's why it's called grace.

You say that you have mostly failed in your callings.

I say that by Grace you serve 
and by Grace you offer what you will.

You say that your mind wanders too much, 
that you are too much a hermit and too little a friend.

I say that my Grace fills the space between your words.

I say that you are beloved on earth.
I say you are wholly mine.
I say you are a strand 
in the very fabric of my purpose 
here in this world of now.

Peace,
Rick
