Prayer Book

By Ruben Durrand
Dear lord,
I pray that I am able to collect words to
speak to you and I pray that you show me
you are listening, for you are my end and
my beginning. You are the light I see and
the sound of the world I hear. You are the
meaning behind all that was, is or ever
shall be.
Amen.

“Thousands of candles can be lit from a
single candle and the life of the candle
will not be shortened.
Happiness never decreases from being
shared.”

Lord,
Help me realise that time cannot be
understood or controlled. All things
end eventually. Help me to remember
that if life is bad, it will eventually get
better and that if life is good, I must
treasure it before it is gone. But I also
ask that I realise that there is no
wrong way to spend time, for time I
enjoy wasting is not wasted.
Amen.

“Two mice fell in a bucket of cream. The
first mouse quickly gave up and drowned.
The second mouse, would not quit. He
struggled so hard that he churned that
cream into butter and walked out.”

As the sun rises, may your love rise in
my heart.
A love that dispels tiredness.
A love that overcomes difficulty.
A love that builds relationship.
A love that inspires diligence.
A love that delivers excellence.
A love that develops trust.
A love that produces praise.
Lord, may I live in the light of your love.
Amen.

Dear Universe,
I ask for nothing more than sight. Sight
that allows me to see things from a
different point of view. Sight that truly
knows that the closer I look, the less I
see. Sight that means instead of looking
at the world through a keyhole, and
spending my whole life trying to widen
that keyhole, I may open the door to see
the true wonders that there are.

Dear lord,
In my darkest times when all I hear are
the sharp word of others that try to cut
me down, I pray that I may eventually
hear the sound of the world’s sweet
music and I pray that it inspires me to act
upon it.
Amen.

overwhelmed. Lead me to the towering
rock of safety.”

Overwhelmed, Defined by Art with Lauren, 2017, Watercolour


Painting, https://artist.com/defined-by-art-with-
lauren/overwhelmed/art-details-351-6080/
Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast,
it is not proud, it is not rude, it is not self-
seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps
no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices
with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts, always
hopes, always preserves.
Love never fails…
And now these three remain:
Faith, hope and love.
But the greatest of these is love.
