Dear Lord,
Help us to face our fears:
of loving you
with all that we are and all that we have:
all our heart and all our soul,
all our mind and all our strength.
Help us to face our fear
of loving our neighbor
as much as we love ourselves.
And help us to embrace our desire
to do them both.
Amen.
Take, O Lord, and receive
my entire liberty,
my memory,
my understanding
and my whole will.
All that I am
and all that I possess
You have given me.
I surrender it all to You
to be disposed of
according to Your will.
Give me only
Your love and Your grace;
with these I will be rich enough,
and will desire nothing more.
- St. Ignatius of Loyola
