I heard this at church and then found it on a blog (bravenotsafe.blogspot.com). It was attributed to Craig Groeschel at the Willow Creek Leadership Summit.
This is something I hope Austin and Caitlin grow up to embody...
May God bless you with discomfort at easy answers, half truths, and superficial relationships, so that you may live deep within your heart.
May God bless you with anger at injustice, oppression, and exploitation of people, so that you may work for justice, freedom, and peace.
May God bless you with tears to shed for those who suffer from pain, rejection, starvation, and war, so that you may reach out your hand to comfort them and to turn their pain to joy.
And may God bless you with enough foolishness to believe that you can make a difference in this world, so that you can do what others claim cannot be done.
