Abandonment to God to start the week
Father, I abandon myself
into your hands.
Do with me what you will,
Whatever you do, I will thank you,
I am ready for all, I accept all.
Let only your will be done in me,
as in all your creatures,
And I'll ask nothing else, my Lord.
Into your hands I commend my spirit;
I give it to you
with all the love of my heart,
For I love you, Lord,
and so need to give myself,
To surrender myself into your hands
with a trust beyond all measure,
because you are my Father.
Charles de Foucauld
