Deliver me, Lord, from all
pettiness. Let me be large in thought and word and deed. Let me leave off
self-seeking and be done with fault-finding.
Teach me to put away all pretence
so that I may meet my neighbour without self-pity and without prejudice.
May I never be hasty in my judgements, but generous to all and at all times.
Make me grow calm, serene and
gentle. Teach me to put into action my better impulses and make me
straightforward and unafraid.
Grant that I may realise that it
is the trifling things that create differences, that in the higher things we
are all one. And let me not forget to be kind.
Amen |
