Honest to God

Here’s a short and simple offering from my book The Animal Lover’s Daily Prayer Book, emphasising that with God there is never any need to pretend to be anything other than what we are.

Thank you, Lord, that I can be honest with you
and share my deepest secrets –
that I have no need to hide the truth,
pretending to be what I’m not,
for you know and love me as I am.
Amen.
