Prayer

HALLIE S. BIXBY

Let me be aware of the presence of God,Of His allness, His power, His peace;Let me know that omnipotence, filling the earth,Brings freedom in healing's release;Let me heed the direction of eternal Mind,Impelling my progress each day;Let me strive to express more of infinite Love,Whose presence surrounds me alway.
