A Prayer for Monday, May 21, 2012

Beneath

We thank you, Lord, for those times when our actions are good, right, and proper.

But we ask you, Lord, for the motives beneath our actions to be what they should be, too.

We thank you, Lord, for those times when our words are good, right, and proper.

But we ask you, Lord, for the thoughts beneath our words to be what they should be, too.

Forgive us, Lord, for those times when our actions and/or words are not what they should be.

We pray, Lord, that even when our actions and/or words are not what they should be the motives and thoughts beneath them will be.

Form our hearts and minds and cause our hands and mouths to follow.

Amen.
