TRUST IN GOD'S PROVIDENCE

My Lord God
I have no idea where I am going.
I do not see the road ahead of me.
I cannot know for certain where it will end.
Nor do I really know myself,
and the fact that I think I am following
your will does not mean that I am
actually doing so.
but I believe that the desire to please you
does in fact please you.
And I hope that I have that desire
in all that I am doing.
I hope that I will never do anything apart
from that desire.
And I know if I do this,
you will lead me by the right road though I
may know nothing about it.
Therefore will I trust in you always though I
may seem lost and in the shadow
of death.
I will not fear, for you are ever with me,
and you will never leave me to face my
Perils alone.
