A Prayer For An Upward Mind Most
Precious Lord Jesus, Gentle And Wonderful God, Truly Awesome And
Ever-present Holy Spirit,
I love you, Lord Jesus.
My thoughts are too often upon the world, and upon my daily cares of life.
My thoughts are too often upon the mundane, the meaningless, and the
trite.
According to your will, turn my mind upward toward you.
Turn my mind upward toward your great wisdom and your great truth.
When my mind spends too long thinking about the darkness of the world,
turn my mind upward so I can see your light beaming down upon me from
above.
When my mind spends too long thinking about my life and my trouble, turn
my mind upward so I can see your mighty power pouring down over me.
When my mind spends too long thinking about my daily cares, turn my mind
upward so every minute of my life is used to show your love, your grace,
and your glory.
When my thoughts are upon the sordid mess of the world, turn my thoughts
to your glory and the grandeur of your heaven.
All these things I humbly pray in the name of my most Blessed Lord Jesus
Christ, my Mighty God, and my Ever-present Holy Spirit upon whom I can
rely.
Amen |
