A Universal Prayer - Attempt
Gazing heavenward
I oft forget Your essence resides within
and that I'm a reflection of Your perfect image
Perpetually abiding in Your redemptive presence
I humbly request Your loving providential guidance
and thank You for our intimate, sacred partnership
You presently reside in my heart -
Within that holy space
I regain inner peace and strength
though outward evil pierces every part of my being
and urges me to succumb
I release all fears
and relinquish selfish desires
I reverently ask that You
mend the heart of every living individual
for we are melded together as one
by Your Holy Spirit
Let us perceive and embrace the light
and healing power of Your divine love...
May we heed Your loving, continual call
Offer what little we may have
to those in need
whether in word or deed
Open our hearts and minds to know and understand
that this life on Earth is but for a scant moment
in the scope of eternity
where you exist 'now' and ever live
always with open arms
of Love, Compassion and Forgiveness
for all
who will
receive
We celebrate Your Unending Love...
Goodness, Kindness, Wisdom, Peace
Righteousness and Merciful Acceptance
with Joy and Thanksgiving
Amen
