Here is today's prayer:

O Lord, Thou knowest what is the better way; let this or that be done as Thou shalt please. Give what Thou wilt, and how much Thou wilt, and when Thou wilt. Deal with me as Thou knowest, and best pleaseth Thee, and is most for Thy honor. Set me where Thou wilt and deal with me in all things as Thou wilt. I am in Thy hand; turn me around and turn me back again, even as a wheel. Behold I am Thy servant, prepared for all things; for I desire not to live unto myself, but unto Thee; and Oh that I could do it worthy and perfectly!

-From Thomas à Kempis
