A Prayer for Wednesday, May 13, 2015

Thirty-Ninth Day of Easter

O God,

We all live with limitations.

There are things we can do and things we cannot do. There are things we do well and things we do poorly.

Help us to live creatively and fully within whatever limitations we have.

Sometimes, though, we are too quick to assume that we are limited; sometimes we use our perceived or presumed limitations as excuses not to try to do something that challenges us. Sometimes we let our fears and insecurities place false limitations on us.

Give us wisdom to know the difference between our legitimate limitations and our presumed or assumed ones. Give us grace to accept what we cannot do and courage to try to do what we just might be able to do.

Amen.
