Grant me the wisdom to discern Your will and the strength to follow it unwaveringly. May Your holy spirit guide my thoughts, my words, and my actions. Let my life be a reflection of Your goodness and love. Teach me to love others as You have loved me, with a pure and selfless heart.
Father, help me to set my mind on things above, to reject the temptations of this world, and to strive for a life pleasing to You. Surround me with Your divine light, that I may shine brightly for You in all circumstances. Thank You for being with me and for Your endless patience and mercy.
In Jesus’ holy name, I pray.
Amen.
