I try to work things out, Lord,
to find solutions to my problems,
but time and again I come unstuck,
life failing to conform to my calculations.
Teach me to trust in you
in whom alone lies the answer to all.
Amen.
Reach out to the lonely, Lord,
those who look out in vain for a knock at the door,
a friendly face,
a moment of company.
However isolated they may be,
teach them that you are by their side.
Amen.
