This Day

Blessed Creator of All,

Thank you for this day-
for I have awakened filled
with your grace.

That in itself is a
reason for joy!

I ask that you guide me
so that my every word
and action is a reflection
of your goodness.

I ask for your forgiveness
if I falter.

I ask for your love so that
I have the strength and courage
to extend love in the face of greed
so that I serve only You
in every sentient being.

Today your light and love
pour through me and show me
the purpose of my life.
