Prayer

Lord,

Please help me to grow in my relationship with you

And to become closer to you

And to know you as a child knows its father

Help my love for you to grow deeper

And for our relationship to be a bond that is unbreakable

Help this love to grow through the incorporation of the seven virtues in my life

Humility, chastity, generosity, meekness, temperance, love of others, and diligence

And with the growth of these virtues

Will come the closest bond possible between us

And the following of your will

Always and as completely as I can

Amen
