As sure as the darkness of night now fades to give way to the light of day, so too is your patient and unconditional love for me O God. Increase my patience too Father, so I may accept that I will not always get it right the first time, that I have my own limitations and shortcomings that prevent me at times from seeing clearly, from discerning properly the direction I must follow. Humble me so that I am more patient with my own self, my family, friends and co-workers, all of us on our own journeys to holiness. And when our days have ended O God, may we see clearly the vision of true holiness and perfection in you, the God of our salvation.
