Prayer to God, Our Mother

by Martha Weathers

Our Mother, you are everywhere,
    hallowed be your many names.
Your fullness come,
    your desires be known
    in our lives as they are in your heart.
Give us today our daily bread.
And forgive us when we cause harm,
    as we forgive those who injure us.
Urge us toward greater wisdom and compassion,
    and deliver us from false thoughts and desires.
For the heart, the whole,
    and the radiance of life are yours,
    and ours, now and forever. Amen.
