Always pray and never stop

Prayceasing. without  

1 Thessalonians 5:17

God instructs us to pray without ceasing , I believe it is an honor to pray for others , so here is a prayer for you all .

Keep us, oh God, from pettiness;

Let us be large in thought , in work , in deed

Let us be done with fault finding and leave off self seeking .

May we put away all pretense, and meet each other face to face

without self pity, and without prejudice .

May we never be hasty in judgement and always generous .

Let us take time for all things;

Make us grow calm , serene, and gentle.

Teach us to put into action our better impulses,

straight forward and unafraid.

Grant that we may realize it is the little things

that create bitterness, and that in the big things of life we are as one.

And may we strive to touch and to know the great human heart of us all ,

and oh Lord God, let us forget not to be kind.

In Thy precious name I pray.

Amen.
