Bless My Prayer
and limitations,
but wisdom and love
with You!
Give us at least a spark
Your wisdom and love,
sealed in Thy word.
From a sermon on the day of remembrance
Pdp. Andrew of Crete
Prayer for Unity
Lord, Jesus Christ!
Thou hast said unto us, Where two or three are gathered together in my name,
I'm there among them.
You didn't want people to walk alone through life
You have gathered us together to be one family.
Let us fulfill Thy new commandment,
that we may love one another as thou hast loved us.
Give us patience, forbearance
and power over oneself.
May we be one, as you are one with the Father and the Spirit,
according to Thy prayer and commandment.
So that our light may shine in this dark world,
Coming from Thee,
and men have come to know thy love
in the love of the Father, in the salvation of the Son
and in the communion of the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
Evening Prayer
Lord Jesus Christ!
In this evening hour, in this city,
where Thy blessing rested,
In the midst of all sufferings, sins and troubles,
Thou who sufferest and took upon Thyself
the plagues of the human race,
because He loved us,
You, who have come here,
Be with us.
Lord, you carried the Cross,
teach us to bear suffering and labor for the sake of our loved ones.
Lord Jesus Christ,
