May God bless us with
discomfort at easy answers, half-truths, and superficial relationships, so that
we will live deep within our hearts.
May God bless us with anger at
injustice, oppression, and exploitation of people and the earth, so that we
will work for justice, equity, and peace.
May God bless us with tears to
shed for those who suffer pain, rejection, hunger, and war, so that we will
reach out our hands to comfort them and turn their pain and sorrow to joy.
And may God bless us with the foolishness to believe that we can make a difference in the world, so we will do the things which others claim cannot be done, to bring justice and kindness to all.
(A Franciscan Prayer~ author unknown)
