​A prayer

Our Father/Mother,
Perfect Love,
in You we live and move and have our being.

Reign in us.
Guide us gently;
help us to love,
so that we do Your will
and fulfil our calling.

Nourish us this day
with awareness of Your Presence.
Be our vision;
help us to look on one another
with kindness and mercy,
as You look on us.

Let us not fall into temptation
and think or act apart from You.

Strengthen our trust in You.
Keep us from fear
and from whatever would harm us.
​
For You are with us always
and Your Love
has no limit or end.

Peter's version of the Lord's Prayer (above) is included in the book, The Kindness of Presence.

​An alternative version


You created me and sustain me.

You are with me always; there with each breath I take.
Help me to do Your will.
Lift me up to be the best that I can be.
Each new day, help me to live with Love.

You provide for me materially, and spiritually
You give me the experiences I need
as I journey through Life.

When I stumble, You forgive me.
Help me also to forgive.

Guide me, so I best can serve You.
Let me recognise You in my sisters and my brothers,
and let boundaries fall away.

Help me to live as You,
In this moment always.

Amen.
