Prayer 1732


We bow before You in gratitude, O God,
knowing that You have inscribed our names on your hands.
Lord, You have made us in love for love's sake:
mold us and direct us in holiness, we pray.
Blessed Jesus, you know the inmost depths of our thoughts:
purify us and fill us with wisdom and charity.
Drive far from us all contention and strife:
help us walk in mercy and grace.

Let us seek enlightenment in your ways, O Christ,
and inscribe your teachings in our hearts.
Let us live together, O God,
in accordance with your promises,
and keep faith with each other in your Name.

Spirit of Truth, take us by the hand and lead us,
that we may steadfastly turn from evil.
Rest your hand upon us,
O Beneficent One,
and accept our praises and prayers
that we offer before You.

Amen.
