Prayer to Begin Each Day

Lord, I so want to make all of me ready and attentive and available to you.
Please help me clarify and purify my intentions.
I have so many contradictory desires.
My activity seems to be so full of busyness
and running after stuff that doesn’t really seem to matter or last.
I know that if I give you my heart
whatever I do will follow my new heart.
May all that I am today,
all that I try to do today,
may all my encounters, reflections,
even the frustrations and failings
all place my life in your hands.

—Excerpted from Retreat in the Real World by Andy Alexander, SJ; Maureen McCann Waldron; and Larry Gillick, SJ.

Prayer to St. Monica

Exemplary Mother of the great Augustine,

you perseveringly pursued your wayward son

not with wild threats but with prayerful cries to heaven.

Intercede for all mothers in our day so that they may learn to draw their children to God.

Teach them how to remain close to their children, even the prodigal sons and daughters who have sadly gone astray.

From here.
