MORNING PRAYER:

Recite this morning prayer daily during Great lent:
Lord and Master of my life, deliver me from the spirit of laziness and meddling, the lust for power and gossip.
Rather, grant the spirit of wisdom, humility, patience, and love to me your servant.
Yes, Lord and King, grant that I may see my own faults and not judge my brother; for You are blessed to the ages of ages. Amen.
