Give Me Strength This is my prayer to thee, my lord---strike, strike at the root of penury in my heart. Give me the strength lightly to bear my joys and sorrows.

Give me the strength to raise my mind high above daily trifles. And give me the strength to surrender my strength to thy will with love.

Life can give you strength. Strength can come from facing the storms of life, from knowing loss, feeling sadness and heartache, from falling into the depths of grief. You must stand up in the storm.

Relaxing into not knowing is almost like surrendering into a big, comfortable chair; you just fall into a field of possibility.
You paint the way you have to in order to give. That's life itself, and someone will look and say it is the product of knowing, but it has nothing to do with knowing, it has to do with giving.
