Father, to you I raise my whole being, a vessel emptied of self. Accept, Lord this my emptiness, and so fill me with yourself, your light, your love, your life ̶ that these your precious gifts may radiate through me and over- flow the chalice of my heart into the hearts of all with whom I come in contact this day revealing to them the beauty of your Joy and wholeness and the serenity of your peace which nothing can destroy
