Dear Friends,
Here is a morning prayer to the universe.
Please feel free to offer this prayer to God.
To the Ultima.
Or whoever or whatever you believe is the cause of her existence.
In the course of the prayer there will be an opportunity to reflect with gratitude on the good people in your life.
The Universe.
Source.
The infinite.
The ultimate.
The ground of being.
That from which we have emerged and to which we will,
All in time,
Return.
I pause for a moment to express gratitude for the gift of this new day.
Thank you for my ability to think.
And for my senses.
Which allow me to experience life once again this morning.
Help me to enter this day with a sense of gratitude.
May I make the most of each and every opportunity to spread love,
Kindness and positivity.
Today,
May I accept all people and all events with openness and without rushing to judgment.
May I not play victim to the thankfully few undesirable conditions in my life.
May I practice forgiveness.
And may I be immune to all hoarts and resentments,
Whether real or imagined.
May I surrender to whatever in my life cannot be changed.
And may I have the courage to change what I know needs to be changed.
Give me my best thoughts and actions at all times.
But especially at those times when I'm feeling pushed beyond my limits.
Keep me uplifted so that I may be a support and an inspiration to others.
May I never lose sight of the magnificence of this world and my own power in creating the circumstances for its improvement.
I pray for peace and an end to war,
Suffering and conflict.
I pray for love and for joy in my own heart and in the hearts of all people.
I give thanks for the wonderful people.
Circumstances,
Opportunities.
And all the things that have blessed and enriched my life.
Especially the inexpressible gift of the people I reflect on in the one-minute pause which now follows.
May each of these people be well.
May they be happy and healthy in mind and body.
May they each enjoy the gift of companionship and love.
I give thanks for all the moments of happiness.
Satisfaction.
Abundance.
Health.
Success and all the good that surrounds me every day.
I am grateful for each and every one of my blessings.
Both seen and unseen.
I'm grateful for myself.
For my existence here,
Against all the odds.
I'm grateful for having come into this amazing world.
I am grateful for it all.
