Prayer: Could it be?

God, could it be that I am called to bring the light of day into the shadowlands of life?

Could it be that I am called to comfort those who mourn and dry the tears of those who cry?

Could it be that I am called to mend a life that's torn with hopeful, helpful, healing hands?

Could it be that I am called to give rest to the worn and guide those who have lost their way? 

Could it be that I am called to forgive as you forgive and to be your generous love in the world?

O God, in your great compassion, lead me, that I might be your presence somewhere between heaven and earth.
