Our rector, Chad Vaughn, used this prayer at the Haitian Hope Golf Tournament on Tuesday, May 8. The golf tournament is our largest single fund raiser. The prayer is attributed to Jeff Hiatt.
Golfer's Prayer
Lord, as I walk down the fairways of life,
help me to realize
that my greatest opportunities to learn are actually when I am in the
rough,
where I discover
things I never knew were there,
and when I'm in the
deepest sand,
where I learn that
there is a time to walk softly,
and clean-up after
myself,
and when I'm playing
scramble,
where I learn that I
have friends to make up for what I lack,
and when I find the
water,
where I learn that
some things are
better left alone.
And when the ball
rolls into the hole for that wonderful par,
help me to realize
that all good things
come from
you.
