Remember

This year, with everything going on in my country, I feel an even deeper need to be reminded of God’s Ever Present Presence, of God’s Providence.

I need to remember that all is well.

And so, I’m re-sharing a prayer that came to me upon waking, back in 2020. I’m sharing it again because I need to read it. I need to remember. It’s also a kind of prayer for two of my aunts who will be undergoing serious surgical procedures next week. (Prayers always welcome!)

(There’s a video version at the end of this post.)

All Is Well

As long as You are God and I am Your beloved creature,

all is well.

As long as You love me with the fullness of Your divinity and the fullness of Your humanity, my Lord and Savior, holding me in Your Sacred Heart,

all is well.

As long as Your Spirit remains within me,

all is well.

No matter how often I may forget, neglect, or reject Your Presence, as long as I let You return me to the knowledge that You have made me in Your own divine image for the sole purpose of giving and receiving divine love,

all is well.

As long as I love You for Yourself by loving my fellow human beings as You mercifully, selflessly, eternally love us,

all is well.

As long as my guardian angel speaks louder and more convincingly than the forces that would take me away from You,

all is well.

As long as I let You love me,

all is well.

No matter the evil that may be done around me nor the evil that may be done to me, no matter the pain and sorrow that I may suffer nor the pain and sorrow that my loved ones may suffer, as long as You and Your all-powerful love remain, as long as Your holy, positive, perfect, ordained will ultimately triumphs, fulfilling the promise of eternal blessings for those who love,

all is well.

As long as You, who are Truth, are true; as long as You, who are Fidelity, are faithful; as long as You, who are Mercy, are merciful; as long as You, who are Love, are loving; and for as long as You, who are Eternity, are eternal,

all is well.

I am Yours.

All is well.

Let me live in Your peace with no end but You.

Amen.
