Audrey introduced me to this prayer, which now hangs on my wall at school to remind me to always surrender to God's will. You've probably seen it, being a smart seminarian and all, but if you haven't, I hope it inspires you.


Prayer of Abandonment

Father,

I abandon myself into Your hands; 
do with me what You will. 
Whatever you may do, I thank you.

I am ready for all, I accept all. 
Let only Your will be done in me, 
and in all Your creatures
I wish no more than this, O Lord. 

Into your hands I commend my soul;
I offer it to You
with all the love of my heart,
for I love You, Lord,
and so,
I need to give myself,
to surrender myself,
into Your hands
without reserve
and with boundless confidence,
for You are my Father.

Amen.

-Br. Charles of Jesus

I'm praying for you!
