PRAYER
FOR A FEMALE FRIEND
Dear
Lord, please hear a prayer for my good friend.
Guide
her closely on her path this day and always.
Steer her clear of pitfalls and distractions.
Give
her deserved self-confidence and inspiring goals,
hold her free from depression and moody pessimism.
Give her confidence and grand energy
which makes her rise happily with the sun each day.
Surround her with true, dependable, loyal, brave,
warm and honest friends, who by companionship, understanding,
advice and example,
will make her a better person each day.
Give
her, please, satisfaction in the work of her life,
and refreshment and joy in her times of recreation.
Let
her achieve goals, triumph over dark difficulties,
and be warmly cherished by family and colleagues.
Hold
her free from depression and moody pessimism.
Lead
her to laugh joyously each day.
Prompt her to pray and share her concerns with You,
for with prayer, all things will be possible for her.
Make
her able, however, to accept Your will
in all things, no matter how bitter and difficult.
Let
her go to sleep this night with a clear conscience,
a sense of accomplishment this day, and a mind at peace.
Wake her tomorrow refreshed,
with a renewed sense of purpose,
a motivating optimism, great hope and happiness.
Help
her keep her eye on the goals of goodness,
charity and spiritual perfection.
Bring
her at last to the shining avenues of heaven
and into eternal joy, and the companionship
of the saints in your unending kingdom.
All
this I pray in faith and hope and charity.
Amen.
