THE PASCHAL (prayer) My god I can never prepare myself for loss It is always wrenching, dusorienting. But help me to trust that each loss can teach me not to cling on so tightly, to let go to fall into the unknown, where you lie waiting to meet me. All will be lost. But in loss we find you. Help me find the riches hidden in you. Help me find your love. May all my losses lead me back to you
