A Prayer for Friday, June 20, 2014

Human

O God,

Help us always to be growing up
into more complete human beings.

Since one thing that characterizes
being human is the ability to be aware,
help us always to be growing in
our awareness.

Help us always to be growing in
our awareness
of you,
of the world,
of others,
and
of ourselves.

As we grow in our awareness,
increase our love
for everybody and everything
of which we are becoming
more aware.

And as we grow in our love,
increase our willingness
to show our love
through service to
and
sacrifice for
those of whom we are becoming
more aware.

Amen.
