May you be blessed by the Holy ones who carry your pain
up the mountain of transfiguration.
May you know tender shelter and a healing blessing when you
are called to stand in the place of pain.
May the places of darkness within you be turned towards the light.
May you be granted the wisdom to avoid false resistance and when suffering knocks on the door of your life, may you be able to glimpse the hidden gift.
May you be able to see the fruits of suffering.
May you learn confidence, faith and trust.
May a window of light always surprise you.
May the grace of transfiguration heal your wounds.
May you know that even though the storm might rage
yet not a hair of your head will be harmed.
- John O'Donohue
Be at peace, then. Put aside all anxious thoughts and imaginations, and say continually: "The Lord is my strength and my shield. My heart has trusted in Him and I am helped. He is not only with me but in me, and I in Him.

Amen
