Lord God,

Grant us courage to follow and do your will today. May we not hesitate to do what is right and good. May we not allow the day to pass unproductive. Help us undo our excuses, our cowardice or indifference. Help us to be generous. We ask this through our Lord Jesus, your Son, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, One God, forever and ever.

Amen.

Fr. Edgar Benedi-an, OSM
