I felt a little foolish publishing the experience of praying in German on my blog; but when I shared this with some friends in class on Saturday one whispered a bedtime prayer in my ear, "I am Small." If you read the STAR GAZING post from Friday you will recall I wrote, "I am just a small person." God's timing and translation is impeccable.
This is my prayer for the third week of Lent, might it be your as well?
"Ich bin klein
Mein Herz ist rein
Darf niemand drin wohnen als Jesus allein."
"I am small
my heart is pure
Nobody may dwell in here but Jesus."
Medicine from Sacred Writings:
"For He that is beloved walks with great unrestraint within the heart of him that loves." St. Chrysostom Homilies on Second Corinthians Homily XIII NPNF1; 12.342
