Prayer by Jonathan Montaldo

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Each day that I repent of my sins is a personal Easter.

Each day I remember to turn home toward you

is my participation in the resurrection of your Son.

Though I stumble, let me always get up again,

trusting always in your open, welcoming arms.
