"Master Physician" Prayer ...

Master Physician ~

We come before You in our brokenness,

Offering pieces of ourselves

At the altar of Your Holy Feet.

Heal us, Oh Holy One!

Put us back together

As You would fix a broken doll

For a crying child.

Patch us with Your Divine Love

And smooth Your Celestial Salve

Over the deep woundedness

Of our most hurting humanity.

Sweetly dab dry our tears of pain ...

Sing songs of Hope and Joy

To pull us from the depths

Of our illusive ills.

Shine Your eternal Light

On the Perfection within us.

Destroy all the dark places,

Until all that remains to be seen

When we look in the mirror

Is Your Light

Staring back at us.

Oh, Master Physician!

Heal us with your Divine Touch!

Cleanse every spot;

Banish every blight;

Wipe away every ill ...

Heal everything within

That is not All Good ~

Heal until there is nothing left to heal ~

Until All that is left

Is You.

Only You.
