2. MorningPrayer Lord, in the silence of the rising day,I come to beg you for peace, wisdom and power.I want to look at the world todayeyes crowded with love.I want to be patient,understanding, gentle and wise.Not subject to appearances,to see your kids sosame as you see themand see in them what is good.Give me such kindness and joy,that everyone with whom I meet today,your presence felt.And let me be bread for others,like you're there for me every day.(Card. Suenens)
35. Evening PrayerHere I am, Lord.My day is coming to an end.If I did something good today,thank you for that, Lord.If I have sinned,Let your love forgive memy ever recurring weakness.In the stillness of the night, in which you feel - I think about the other nightthe one that comes,when my eyes once thistleswill see the light of the earth.Death comes in the same wayas night comes,as inevitable and as it is deep.Make it the most beautiful of my night.Falling asleep tonight,I offer you my soul so,if it was my hour of death.Father, accept me. Srights, I would quietly asleep,learned how to die.(Romano Guardini)
