A Working Prayer

By David Carnes | January 2008

OK – this is a little off topic, but I’ve been having a lot of very vivid dreams lately.

Last night I dreamt that I was praying with Mark Johnson (Mark works with me as part of the executive management team at ArcStone and is the managing partner in charge of our association CRMs AMO and CMO).

In the dream we were saying the prayer together in the morning before we started work.

When I got up, I wrote down the prayer. It has a ring of authenticity (being made of dream stuff and all), and I like it – so I thought I’d share it here….

 

Holy One – Mystery of Life Known by Many NamesLend us the strength and insight to serve everyone we meet today with love and compassion.

Give us the wisdom to discern the right path and lead our fellowship to a place where we can do the most good in the world.

Grant us the humility and understanding to be grateful for the opportunities and lessons in our lives.

It is your grace that works through us, around us and with us to create the world.

Without you we are nothing. With you we are everything.

Amen, and let it be so.
