A Prayer for a Wise Heart
Great Creator Spirit,
May we journey with Christ in all things seeking soul friendship and pilgrimage along the way.
May we enfold this given life in a soulful rhythm of prayer, work and rest.
May we practice sacred reading of Scripture and spiritual writings, art and science.
May we hold the whole world in Light and prayer, as we are held.
May we simplify life such that beauty, generosity and hospitality shine forth.
May we endow the earth with our love and gentle care.
May we, with wisdom and discernment, become a healing presence.
May we listen deeply in silence to the Spirit.
May we build a true communion of love with peoples of all faiths and spiritual traditions and of none.
May we spread peace, harmony and justice wherever the winds of the Spirit may blow us.
AMEN
