When you give us a prayer that does not hesitate in its heart and that holds fast to what it asks of you,
blessed are you!
When you give us a prayer that embraces much more than just our personal projects and interests, blessed are you!
and personal interests, blessed are you!
When you inspire us to pray in a way that already gives thanks, sure, with that of Jesus,
that you always answer, blessed are you!
When you nurture in us the perseverance of prayer in the day when words grow stale,
and breath, and desire, blessed are you!
When you fill us with astonishment and gratitude for having been welcomed, heard and loved, blessed are you!
