NIGHT PRAYER: FRIDAY 12/2

Because I'm often foolish, Lord, 

be generous with your wisdom:

    you know how much I need it! 

 

In these short, dark December days,

    shine your light upon my path 

        to help me follow where you lead

especially when I'm not sure

    of where I've been

    or where I am

    or where I'm going...

 

May your wisdom bring:

    order in my chaos,  

    reason in my foolishness,

    truth to guide my choices,     

    faith to scatter doubt,

    common sense in my confusion,

    and hope to see beyond today

    to what tomorrow offers... 

Because I'm often foolish, Lord, 

be generous with your wisdom - 
    you know how much I need it!

Be my wisdom, Lord:    

    fill my mind with your good counsel,

    shape my thinking with your truth, 

    bless my vision with keen insight,

        my decisions with sound prudence

           and my heart with clear discernment... 

Let your wisdom be my guide, Lord:
    a star to lead me close to you
through Advent's holy days
    and all the seasons of my life...

Protect me, Lord, while I'm awake,

keep vigil while I sleep,

that awake I might keep watch with you

and asleep, rest in your peace...

Amen.
