Prayer 934- Feast Day of Jonathan Myrick Daniels, martyr


Holy One, we turn our eyes to you as we rise to face a new day: blessed and holy be your Name. Give us the courage to turn our hearts and amend our lives from selfishness or envy, and forgive us our failings. Our times are in your hand- you know our rising up and our laying down to rest: guide us this day, we pray. Help us to follow in the paths of saints and martyrs, that we may work to build your kingdom on earth. Divine Spirit, hallow and bless us this day, and spread the wings of your abundant love over those we now name.

Amen.
