We are on our way to Philadelphia, PA. As we leave, we pray that we can be light for so many who live in darkness this week. Here is a prayer by Muhammad from Prayer Without Borders: Celebrating Global Wisdom, published by Catholic Relief Services.
O God! Grant me Light in my heart, Light in my grave,
Light in front of me, Light behind me,
Light on my right, Light on my left,
Light above me, Light below me,
Light in my ears, Light in my eyes,
Light on my skin, Light in my hair,
Light within my flesh, Light in my blood, Light in my bones.
O God! Increase my light everywhere.
O God! Grant me Light in my heart,
Light on my tongue, Light in my eyes, Light in my ears,
Light on my right, Light on my left,
Light above me, Light below me,
Light in front of me, Light behind me,
And light within my self.
Increase my Light.
-Muhammad
