Prayer For Direction

Lord God,
It is not clear to me
how I should spend my life.
It is not clear to me

I am often confused.

So many attractive things
hold out empty promises
for happiness.

Help me,
through the prayers of
Saint John Bosco,
who was a friend
to any young person in need.

Help me to know your will for me,
and give me the courage to follow.

May I know the true joys
that are only found
in giving my life for others.
