The CGA Prayer

GOD, make me a better person.

Teach me to understand people, no matter how big or small they may appear to be by my estimate. Show me where I have hidden my own defects of character instead of me finding defects in others.

Teach me to listen to what people have to say; to answer their questions unselfishly and fairly, or just to simply reply with kindness. Keep me from interrupting people, or contradicting them when they speak. Make me, as courteous and tolerant to others, as I would expect them be to me.

Forbid that I should spread poison gossip; don't let me laugh at others mistakes or resort to shame or ridicule when people displease me. May I never punish or condemn others, for my own selfish satisfaction, or to show I have more power than them.

Let me not tempt others to lie, deceive or harm people. And guide me, hour by hour, to demonstrate by all that I say and do, that honesty will produce a stronger character and ultimately, happiness.

Reduce, I pray, this evilness in me, for it is my greatest enemy. And when I feel out of patience with myself, help me God, to hold back a vicious tongue. May I ever be mindful that people are people, and I should not impose on them, the judgement left for You, alone.

Let me not rob others, of the opportunity to make choices and decisions for themselves.

Bless me, with the willingness to give, when the request is reasonable. And the courage to deny things I know, from my experiences, can bring harm by any measure.

Loan me, Your Wisdom, to have pure motives in all my affairs or endeavors. And fit me, God, to be an instrument of Love and Respect, so others will imitate me.
