Merely Enough Today

Dear God,

I do not want to be burdened with having too much. I also know that what I consider merely enough is more than I truly need. Lead me, Lord, to know that what I have is not mine, but Yours. If I truly believe in this holy way of life, in being the subject of Lady Poverty, then make my heart willing to give up anything You call me to share with another.
