Amicus Dei

I wrote this prayer on a trip to Hong Kong in March, 2002, and just ran across it in an old journal. 

Prayer of Hope

The peace of still waters be with you;

The warmth of the sun shine on you;

The smile of a baby touch you;

The joy of heaven fill you.

Thanks be to you, O Christ

For calming stormy seas,

For tending to your creation,

For hope in small packages,

And, for a peek behind the curtain.

Thanks be to you, O Christ,

Thanks be to you.  Amen.

– Chuck Warnock, March 2002, Hong Kong
