Living with Christ Morning Prayer
Sunday, October 13, 2013
My God, you know what a fool I am,
my weakness is not hidden from your sight.
Therefore, Lord, I ask you not for gold,
I ask you not for silver,
nor for jewels, but only
that you would give me wisdom,
that I may know to rule your people well.
O font of wisdom, send her
from your throne of might,
to be with me, to work with me,
to act in me, to speak in me,
to order all my thoughts
and words and deeds and plans
according to your will
and to the glory of your name.
- Aelred of Rievaulx
