Evening Prayer for August 2, 2022

God friend, this day is coming to an end and now, embraced in the darkness of your night, I take refuge in this humble prayer. I raise to your majestic sky, all my love and my gratitude for allowing me to continue the rest of today in your company.

Thank you blessed Father, because you have been very compassionate with me, giving me many opportunities drawn at sunrise and sunset, in each person that I saw and shared today, at every moment of the day that I could contemplate you with all my senses, I could feel the warm rays of the sun, the refreshing breeze near the sea, the singing of the birds when I woke up and enjoy the rain.

All your love is manifested in so many things undeserved by my smallness, because I fail you daily Lord. Thank you for the joy of being alive and enjoying so many good times, which do not make me forget to be grateful, or to feel like the most spoiled child of your precious eyes.

I also thank you, my God, for the complex situations that I had to live through, those moments where I felt rejected, hurt and also frustrated. All this sows in me many doubts, of which I do not want them to be so great as to lose my faith.

Among my weaknesses, I must admit that I hurt your heart Lord. I beg your forgiveness, on my knees at the foot of my bed, I beg your mercy Holy Father, I don’t do it intentionally, but sometimes temptation drives my emotions when I feel hurt and I don’t know how to control them. I want to be clay again in your hands my God, make me again please.

Tonight, I would like to give myself to your arms so I can rest easy, I give you everything that can torment me and interrupt my dreams. Take my weaknesses and my shortcomings and turn them into strength with the power of your grace.

I would also like to take this opportunity to ask you for the peace of mind of my friends and family. In case any of them are far from your presence, make them return and be born again by your infinite goodness. Take care of them from all danger and any disturbance they may suffer, do not keep them away from your face please, they need a lot from You.

In your love I am pleased, I give myself to be able to rest my body and my mind who are tired from all the work I did during the day. Allow this nocturnal silence to give me the relief I need as I sleep, in the hope of a new and blessed dawn, in the name of your Son Jesus, Amen.
