God of the universe please have mercy
on those who cannot or will not believe.
If it be Your divine
will, please send to them some sign, some situation, or some
extraordinary grace which opens their eyes -- or some person
who brings them some sudden new insight which leads
them into the saving light of faith.
Let not ego or arrogance
hold them back from
the simple goodness of Your truth
and the incomprehensible glory of Your Kingdom.
Stay my mind that I
do not judge them or others.
And please, blessed
Jesus, let me never lose my own faith, or doubt Your word, but
let my belief grow stronger, and stronger until
it is confirmed
before Your Majesty in heaven.
Amen

Atheists are often
thoughtful individuals
of extraordinary intellect and achiement - perhaps iconoclasts
with heavy-hitting egos .... (and often have long hair?
LOL). I pray in humility
for all of them, that they may be privileged
to see the Eternal Light in this life or in the next.
