"Master Physician" Prayer ...

(Photo by Karen Wood)

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.

The Imperfect Flower

Bring Me an
Imperfect flower ...

You cannot do it.

For I have stamped
Perfection
On every petal ~ every leaf.

You bring me a weed,
But you don't see its loveliness
As I see it.

And you don't call it
By the name I gave to it.

Bring me a weed ~
Or bring me a Rose.

Either way,
You bring me a Mirror.
