As I set off on the 'Footsteps of Jesus' Holy Land tour, I find my mind turning to the powerful prayer of St Francis of Assisi that has spoken to me and challenged me many times throughout my Christian Pilgrimage:
"Most High, Glorious God
Enlighten the darkness of my heart,
and give me right faith,
certain hope, and perfect charity,
wisdom and understanding,
Lord, that I may carry out your Holy and true command.
Amen"
In carrying out God's work in my current role, a certain degree of darkness of heart has overshadowed this work. My prayer over this couple of weeks is that God's light (Jesus) may penetrate that darkness as I retrace His steps through the Holy Land.
