Lord, You know my comings and goings.

You know my thoughts from afar off. You know me altogether.

may my every thought be rooted in You.

with Your mighty, but gentle breath, blow away the chaff from my thoughts, Lord.

remove foolishness far from me.

give me the desire to pursue the eternal and not be caught up in the temporal.

and above all, give me Your love to motivate all that i

say, think and do.

lure me, by Your love, to my own secret place every day

that i might know You, and be filled up with Your presence.

amen.
