April 3rd Prayer

i thank you, Jesus, for becoming a human being

So i don't have to pretend or try to be God

i thank you, Jesus, for becoming finite and limited

So i don't have to pretend that i am infinite and limitless

i thank you, Jesus, for becoming mortal

So i don't have to try to make myself immortal

i thank you, Jesus, for becoming inferior

So i don't have to pretend that I am superior to anyone

i thank you, Jesus, for being crucified outside the walls

For being expelled and excluded like sinners and outcasts

So you can meet me where i feel i am

Outside the walls of worthiness

i thank you, Jesus, for forgiving my sins

So i don't have to try to forgive myself

i thank you, Jesus, for rising from the dead

So i can have hope beyond the grave

i thank you, Jesus, for all that you are

So that i can be all you have created me to be
