Pause for Prayer: TUESDAY 2/27

 

With the fire of your love, Lord,
    cleanse my mind,
    my heart and my soul,

    my hungers and thirsts,

    my passions and my desires...

 

Burn away

    what's stubbornly selfish,
    biased, resentful, begrudging,

    angry, hard-hearted, deceitful,

    prejudiced, proud, self- absorbed...

 

Brand my heart with the sign of your Cross, Lord,

let my words and my deeds make clear:

    it's your love I want to rule my day
    and fashion the person I am...

 

Shine down from the heavens above, Lord:

touch and heal like the noonday sun

    the hurt I've caused for others

    and the pain in my wounded heart...

 

As in a refiner's fire, Lord,

    make pure my heart's intentions

    'til my soul's aflame with your Spirit

    and alive with the warmth of your love...

Amen.
