Here is today's prayer:
O God, our Father, who has bidden us to be lights in this dark world, help us throughout all this day to be a help and an example to all whom we meet.
Help us to bring comfort to those in sorrow, and strength to those who are tempted.
Help us to bring courage to those who are afraid, and guidance to those who do not know what to do.
Help us to bring cheer to those who are discouraged, and encouragement to those who are depressed.
And grant that, as we move among men and women this day, they may catch a glimpse in us of the Master, whose we are and whom we seek to serve. This we ask for Thy love's sake. Amen.
From William Barclay's The Plain Man's Book of Prayers, page 34.
