Grant Us The Assistance Of Your Spirit

Lord God, who knows the weakness of our nature; grant us the continual assistance of your Holy Spirit, that we might resist the many temptations we face every day.  Imprint on our hearts and minds your saving Word, that we might follow the leading of Scripture which revealas your Will through the teachings of our Lord Jesus Christ.  May we be endowed with such a grateful sense of your Goodness, that we do our very best to  please you and to serve one another.  This we ask in the Name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.  Amen.
