A Prayer For Challenging Times
by Chris Assaad
It’s relatively easy to be thankful when things are going well in life. But what about when we are facing times of great difficulty and challenge? In such instances, it requires the strengthening of our ability to find causes for gratitude even amidst undesirable circumstances and hardships. This is the true magic and medicine of appreciation. When we can stay tethered to a deep inner knowing that, in the grand scheme of things, we are blessed and that all is well, even when there are things present in our lives that would have us believe otherwise. When we do this, we can literally transform our difficulties into opportunities for greater faith, trust, and perhaps even resilience. This prayer was born of that intention. May it be a source of support to you during those times when you are finding it hard to see the light in the darkness.
