Learning to Be Alone

Gracious God, help me learn to be graciously and contentedly alone without being bowed down by  the loneliness that bites at and constricts my heart. Let the light of your presence lead me on the path where I am able to see and know those things that cannot be seen and known while in the company of others. Let my alone-ness be the space of preparation that makes me more truly present to the world of humanity around me. I ask this for the sake of your love. Amen.
