PRAYER (ANDRÉ LUIZ)

PRAYER

Lord.

In the silence of this prayer, I come to ask you peace, wisdom, strength.
  I always want to look at the world full of love.
  I want to be patient, understanding, wise:
I want to see beyond appearances your children, as you yourself see the Lord and so, to see only the good in each of them.
  Close my ears to all the calumnies, guard my tongue from all evil, that only blessings fills my soul, that I be as good and glad that all those who come near me, feel your presence.
  Clothe me with thy beauty, Lord, and that, during this day, I reveal to you all

ANDRÉ LUIZ
