a prayer for this season...

Disturb us, Lord, when
We are too well pleased with ourselves
When our dreams have come true
Because we have dreamed too little,
When we arrived safely,
Because we sailed too close to shore.
........................................
Disturb us, Lord, to dare more boldy,
To venture on wider seas
Where storms will show Your mas...tery
Where losing sight of land, we shall find the stars."
~Sir Francis Drake, 1577
