"Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;in all your ways acknowledge him,and he will direct your paths." Proverbs 3, 5-6.People asked me why I was so happy at work yesterday. I had no response other than I'm not worried any more. When I arrived at work yesterday my precautionary redundency notice lay waiting, warning me that unless the funding came through I woudl be out of a job in four weeks. However I'm not panicing. I just really feel that I have given it all to God and He will deal with it. I can't really explain the calm I feel but it's odd.

Thomas Merton Prayer
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 that 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 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 that if I do this you will lead me by the right road though I may know nothing about it. Therefore will I trust you always though I may seem to be 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.
