Heartprints

The following well-known anonymous poem is well worth a reminder:

“Whatever our hands touch –

We leave fingerprints!

On walls, on furniture

On doorknobs, dishes, books.

There’s no escape.

As we touch we leave our identity.”

So for today’s suggested prayer: “Dear God:

‘Wherever I go today

Help me leave heartprints!

Heartprints of compassion

Of understanding and love.

‘Heartprints of kindness

And genuine concern.

May my heart touch a lonely neighbor

Or a runaway daughter

Or an anxious mother

Or perhaps an aged grandfather.

‘Send me out today

To leave heartprints.

And if someone should say,

“I felt your touch,”

May they also sense the love

that is deep within my heart.’3
