Prayers

Heavenly Father, Thank You for uniquely creating me And for each opportunity To be present at the right moment To do what someone else has missed; To join in prayer to alleviate Another's pain or loneliness; To do whatever You ask of me, Becoming the person You want me to be.

Heavenly Father, When I dream big, Please increase my faith, too, For with You all things are possible.

Lord Jesus, our Good Shepherd, In Your love, please bless the priests Given to Your flock to guide; And the deacons ordained to serve, Bringing care and justice to abide.

Loving Father, When the days of summer turn To autumn in color glorious, I join Creation in giving praise For the panorama of love around us.

Blessed Virgin Mary, When I feel like a vessel too fragile To hold the cares that trouble me, Please ask the Lord in His great love to bestow The strength and every grace I need.

Loving God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, Each sunrise is unlike any seen before— The advent of a new day And an invitation to look at things A little differently than I have before.

Lord Jesus, Wherever the violence of anger erupts And its lava buries innocence, I pray for peace of heart that comes with faith overflowing and spreading forgiveness.
