SYMPHONY IN THE DARK NIGHT OF UNKNOWING / by Joe Castorino

“…seek and you will find…” (Matthew 7: 7)

First Movement: The Prelude

Holding the sweet hand of

Our Lady of Love,

I come before you,

The Light of the Word,

And I wish to discern

Your will in my life.

Second Movement: My Affections

This is what I hope:

_____________;

Dearest Jesus,

If this is your will, too,

Then with great joy,

And heartfelt thanksgiving,

I will glorify you!

Third Movement: My Fears

But this is what I fear:

_____________;

Dearest Jesus,

If this is your will,

Then as a Knight of Christ,

I will trust in you,

And I will courageously

Carry this cross and

Surrender to you, in love.

Fourth Movement: God’s Will

O Divine Wisdom,

Through Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal,

Shine your light upon me,

And may your will, not mine, be done;

O Lord of Love, please inspire me

By the power of the Holy Spirit

To have great trust in your divine mercy!

Amen.
