A good start

Got it in gear and went to prayer at church this morning.  It always makes me cry, e-v-e-r-y time.  The particular prayer from The Book of Common Prayer that gets to me has a part that says this:

"Finally, we commend to thy fatherly goodness all those who are in any ways afflicted, or distressed, in mind, body, or estate:  that it may please thee to comfort and relieve them, according to their several necessities; giving them patience under their sufferings, and a happy issue out of all their afflictions.  And this we beg for Jesus Christ's sake.  Amen." ~from A Prayer for all Conditions of Men

So sweet, and a perfect way to begin the day.

Take care.
