• THE PRAYER
  BE AT PEACE
  (By Saint Francis De Sales)

  Do not look forward in fear to the changes in life;

  rather, look to them with full hope that as they arise,

  God, whose very own you are,

  will lead you safely through all things;

  and when you cannot stand it,

  God will carry you in His arms.

  Do not fear what may happen tomorrow;

  the same understanding Father who cares for

  you today will take care of you then and every day.

  He will either shield you from suffering

  or will give you unfailing strength to bear it.

  Be at peace,

  and put aside all anxious thoughts and imaginations.

• Send Down the Fire

Send down the fire of your justice,

Send down the rains of your love;

Come, send down the Spirit,

breathe life in your people,

and we shall be people of God.
