Dear God:
 I pray today that You will avert the eyes of my heart from worldly desires and instead, guide them to the heart of Your being in all that they see. Bless me especially with the Grace that only You can provide, which allows me to see, hear and know all others who travel this earth beside me as You see, hear and know them.  In that blessing, I believe, is where my only chance lies to follow Your greatest command, to love others as You have loved me.*
 Amen.
