Prayers Before and After Reading and Reflecting


A Prayer Before Reading and Reflecting

Almighty and Eternal God, so draw our hearts to you, so guide our minds, so fill our imaginations, so control our wills, that we may be wholly yours, utterly dedicated to you; and then use us, we pray you, as you will, and always to your glory and the welfare of your people; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. (BCP, pg. 832)

A Prayer After Reading and Reflecting

Almighty and Everlasting God, increase in us the gifts of faith, hope, and charity; and that we may obtain what you promise, make us love what you command; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen. (BCP, pg. 235)
