I found a website, a blog, actually, that is interesting. The writer simply posts a saying from one of the Desert Fathers each day. It's called Word from the Desert. Today's word was a prayer from St. Isaac the Syrian from the seventh century:

Immeasurable Grace

Glory, O Lord, to Your immeasurable grace.

Behold, O Lord, the waves of Your grace have made me silent; and no thought has been left in me before Your good graces.

With what words can we praise You, O good King, You who love our life?

Glory to You for the worlds which You have created for our growth and pleasure, leading us through all that You have created to the knowledge of Your glory, from now and unto the ages.  Amen


There is also a link to have this sent to you daily in your email, if you don't want to go to the website every day.

Go and Wash

"Go and wash," He said.
And the blind man did and was healed.

But what of me? What would I have done?
"I don't know the way?"
"I can't see, how do I get there?"
"Why should I go?"
"What's in it for me?"
"Who are you to tell me what to do?"

"Go and wash," He says.
I am the Way and the Truth and the Life.
Wash not only your face but your sins also.
