God, help me remember that the higher human within me is in constant development.
Help me achieve the state of calm and serenity required for an orderly development of my higher being. Let me enter lovingly into the merits, those things worthy of praise, of each person I meet. Let what calls me to action be motives of admiration, delighted approval, and reverential regard everywhere in my environment. Give me the confidence to remember that such devotion gives me power to attain higher knowledge. When I discover in my consciousness adverse, disparaging, and critical judgment of people, the world, and of life, help me find the strength to cultivate thoughts of devotion -- centering my personal attention, activities, and prayers toward truth, knowledge, and love. God, help me to remember that my labor and suffering are given and endured for the sake of a great, spiritual, cosmic whole -- that the most insignificant action that I have to accomplish, the most insignificant experience which offers itself to me stands in connection with holy beings and holy events. God, help me identify my being distinctly in the cultural, political, economic, and group realms, establishing balance in these domains: In culture, may I promote Liberty In politics, may I promote Equality In economics, may I promote Service to Others In family and community, may I promote Inclusivity and Love Amen. an everyday prayer - kaitlyn teague lundrigan - 2/15/2004
