Prayer for Direction

My Lord God, I have no idea where I am going. I do not
see the road ahead of me. I cannot know for certain where it will end. Nor do I really
know myself, and the fact that I think that I am following your will does not mean that I
am actually doing so. But I believe that the desire to please you does in fact please you.
And I hope I have that desire in all that I am doing.

I hope that I will never do anything apart from that desire. And I know that if
I do this, you will lead me by the right road though I may know nothing about it.
Therefore will I trust you always though I may seem to be lost and in the shadow of death.
I will not fear, for You are ever with me, and You will never leave me to face my perils
alone.
