Canyon Prayer

Dear God

Let me be like this canyon 

Let me be like the walls giving shelter 

reflecting back to them their singing voices 

Let me be like this river 

Flowing gently so that what I offer them is fresh and good

Let me be like these trees, strong enough to support their climbing to new heights

Let me be like the rock, 

Challenging them to find their footing and balance 

 let me be like this unending space, free enough to let them find their boundlessness 

Dear God 

Let me be like this canyon...
