For all that You have given me
So that I may in turn give
To my brothers and sisters
In Your name

So that I may always speak honestly,
With complete sincerity,
With no pretense or ulterior motive.
By Your grace may my words
Always deserve complete trust.
Amen

Lord, grant me the virtue of humility
Grant me the knowledge of the truth
That all that I have and all that I am
Is from You, through me, and for others.
By Your grace,
Use me to serve Your people
For Your glory and Your sake.
Amen
Thursday, September 1
Lord, grant me the virtue of gentleness,
A kindness that shines through my smile,
A patience that waits in silence
Good cheer that warms the heart
Of the suffering neighbor
Tireless good will that comforts the mind
Of the neighbor in need
Amen
Friday, September 2
Lord, grant me the virtue of selflessness
Empty me of selfishness
Empty me of self
So that it may be You
Who lives in me, and loves through me.
By Your grace, make me an instrument
Of Your Holy Will
Amen
