Dedication in the Days When We Can’t See the Way – a Prayer

My Lord God,

I do not see the road ahead of me.
I cannot know for certain where it will end.

I have no idea where I am going.

Nor do I really know myself, and the fact that I think I am following your will does not mean that I am actually doing so.

And I hope that I have that desire in all that I am doing.

I hope that I will never do anything apart from that desire.
But I believe that my desire to please you does in fact please you.

And I know that if I do this you will lead me by the right road though I may know nothing about it.

Therefore will I trust you always though I may seem to be lost and in the shadow of death.
I will not fear, for you are ever with me, and you will never leave me to face my perils alone.

In Jesus’ name, I pray.

- Amen
