Prayer

Dear Guardian Angel

Make me humble, make me meek,

Be the guidance that I seek.

Make me rise each time I stumble,

Be my strength when I am weak.

But above all this, I pray,

That you’ll lead me, day by day,

To see God’s face more clearly

Shining brightly through the fray.

Speak the truth above the lies,

Show the good that evil hides,

And in the sorrow and the pain

Unveil Love’s beauty in disguise.

Shadow Prayer

Move me like your shadow, oh God,

that I might do your will with perfect immediacy and precision.  
Fill me with the fruit of your Spirit,
So others may see your beauty in my love, 
your goodness in my joy, 
your perfection in my peace, 
your providence in my patience, 
your mercy in my kindness, 
your abundance in my generosity, 
your immutability in my faithfulness, 
your strength in my gentleness, 
and your power in my self-control.
