Prayer

One true God, there are diverging paths in my life. There is good and evil, forgiveness and revenge, love and hate. I am often tempted to think vengeful thoughts. Forgive me. Today, I pray for your help in choosing the way of love, goodness, and forgiveness. Give me eyes to focus my attention and intention on you alone. Amen.
