TRUTH TELLING

A Blessing based upon Psalm 51

May the Lord grant you mercy and forget anything you have ever done wrong

May you feel clean and fresh, like sheets fresh off the clothesline

May you have the courage to speak your truth, even when it’s ugly

May truth-telling be a desire that wells up from the deepest parts of you,

exposing what you have been fearfully hiding

May the truth you speak bring joy and gladness and deep healing

May it renew your spirit within you, and be a steady support

May you always feel God’s presence and be filled with God’s spirit
