A Child’s Prayer for Morning

Now, before I run to play,
Let me not forget to pray
To God who kept me through the night
And waked me with the morning light.
Help me, Lord, to love thee more
Than I ever loved before,
In my work and in my play
Be thou with me through the day.
Amen.

Thank you for hearing and answering my prayer. Gratefully, in Your name.

Prayer for Sunday (Rosh Hoshanah)

Without freedom from the past,
there is no freedom at all,
because the mind is never new, fresh, innocent.
~ Jiddu Krishnamurti

Father Mother God,
Help me to let go of the past.
Help me to release the resentments, pain, disappointments, and regrets
of the things I have done
or not done.
Help me to release the resentments and emotional attachments
of the things others have done
or not done.
Keep me in the present
and to not worry about the future.
And so it is.
