Prayer of Father Guy Gilbert

This French Diocesn priest is known for his outspokenness and called the “priest of ruffians”.

Besides the many books he has written, he is also the author of this reflection.

 

Only God can create,

but you can value what He has created.

God alone can give Life,

but you can transmit it and respect it.

God alone can give Health,

but you can orient, guide, heal.

Only God can give Faith,

but you can give your testimony.

Only God can infuse Hope,

but you can restore trust in your brother.

God alone can give Love,

but you can teach the other to love.

God alone can give Joy,

but you can smile to everyone.

God alone can give Strength,

but you can support a discouraged person.

God alone is the Way,

but you can show it to others.

God alone is the Light,

but you can make it shine in the eyes of others.

God alone is Life,

but you can give back to others the desire to live.

Only God can do Miracles,

but you can be the one who brings the five loaves of bread and the two fishes.

God alone can do what seems impossible,

but you can do the possible.

God alone is sufficient in Himself

but he preferred to count on you!

Amen. Alleluia.
