This beloved image of the Prodigal Son by Murillo along with this beautiful Spanish prayer reminds us of the Father's welcome when we come to Him with our needs.
"Father, accept me at the end of my days.
Jesus, correct all my errors, make good all my mistakes.
Father, appoint some powerful saint to take up my cause.
Lord, take hold of me and never let me go.
Lord, protect and bless my family and all who belong to me in any way.
Lord, make my life interesting and useful.
Lord, take care of my interests.
Lord, turn everything to good account.
Lord, draw me to you.
Lord, arrange things for your glory.
Lord, be with me, now and forever.
Father, this day I put my life in your hands.
Amen."
