A prayer by Ellen Mongan
Jesus, I offer You myself today, in my nothingness. As I begin a new day, let me live in You, for You and through You. I come as a beggar asking You Jesus, to use me as a vessel of Your love. I seek You alone…Please fill me with Your unending love, so I can pour it out on everyone I meet. If You do not fill me, I will have nothing to give them.

Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident."--Louis de Bernières, Captain Corelli's Mandolin
