Morning Prayer Let me to-day do something that shall take A little sadness from the world’s vast store, And may I be so favored as to make Of joy’s too scanty sum a little more. Let me not hurt, by any selfish deed Or thoughtless word, the heart of foe or friend;…

SPIRITUAL POEMS: “Prayer” by Ella Wheeler Wilcox
“Prayer” Lord, let us pray. Give us the open mind, O God, The mind that dares believe In paths of thought as yet untrod; The mind that can conceive Large visions of a wider way Than circumscribes our world to-day. May tolerance temper our own faith, However great our zeal; When others speak of life…
Spirituality from Daily Word: “Pray for others” (Espiritualidad de la Palabra Diaria: “Orar por otros”)
Pray for Others I spread love through my thoughts, prayers, and actions. Prayer is more than words and rituals. It is an action, a way of reaching out in love to help, support, and encourage others.

A quote from Neale Donald Walsch on “praying for those who frustrate you”
When you pray for anyone, you tend to modify your personal attitude toward them. Norman Vincent Peale said that, and he touched on something truly profound. If someone is vexing you right now, say a prayer for that person. Send them all of your best energies. Nothing changes the environment like one person deciding to love…
Spirituality from Daily Word: “Prayer” (Espiritualidad de la Palabra Diaria: “Oración”)
Prayer In prayer I make a spiritual connection. Jesus taught his disciples about prayer, instructing them to “go into your room and shut the door” when they pray. He was speaking about the importance of turning to God within. Like going into a room, prayer is a state of consciousness I enter. When I…
Spirituality from Daily Word: “In the Garden” (Espiritualidad de la Palabra Diaria: “En el huerto”)
In the Garden I trust that my highest good is unfolding. Before I begin my day, I pause for a prayerful moment and affirm: My highest good is unfolding. I turn within and enter the Silence, devoting time and attention toward the unlimited peace and power of my Source. These precious times in prayer remind…
