A prayer for love:
Teach me to love, Lord, as You love,
Make it unconditional, honest, and kind,
To ask nothing back in return, Lord,
To encompass the whole of mankind.
May I offer my love without speaking,
May it radiate as it shines forth from me,
May it be seen in my face and my eyes, Lord,
May it be simple, sincere, and shame free.
Show me how to forgive, Lord, as You do,
To not burden another with guilt,
To not play the role of the martyr,
To be a rock on which trust may be built.
Make my love for others be greater by far
Than any love that is offered to me,
Led by the Spirit, Inspired of God,
As forgiving as Jesus...and free.

(I chose this prayer because, well its really hard too explain, for me its just breath taking I love how she puts it and how its like a mixture of forgiveness and love)
(Grinny wrote this on love and forgiveness of what some people feel at times when there down, this person she's wrote in the prayer is asking for god too guide her alone her journal)
