Here is a prayer I composed after receiving absolution in the Sacrament of Reconciliation. Graces were running through me fast and furious as I knelt at the altar rail.
O God,
I surrender myself to You.
I lay all my weaknesses at Your Feet. Eliminate them.
Let me never be led by the flesh, but by Your Spirit living within me.
I embrace the designs You have had on me since You knit me in my mother's womb.
Never let me be separated from You!
Exhume my talents. Raise them up for Your greater glory.
Let me begin again the journey I abandoned long ago.
I'm ready to start anew.
Make me the person You created me to be.
Take me through that narrow gate that leads me home.
