СКАЧАТЬ Women With Breast Cancer

      Father, for the strength you have given me, I thank you. For the health you have blessed me with, I thank you. For the women who are going through breast cancer and their families, I ask you to strengthen and to heal as you see fit. Lord, we know you want us to be in good health and to prosper. Lord, use us to do the work you have for us to do. For we know time is getting short on this earth. Lord, be with every woman who is sick and encourage them as only you can. I know how faithful you are. You have shown yourself to be everything you say you are in your Holy Word. I praise you, for you made this body, and you can heal this body. In Jesus’ Name I pray.

      - Fran Leffler, Las Vegas Women’s Prayer Circle

      Seek and Ye Shall Find

      Ask, and it shall be given you;

      Seek, and you shall find;

      Knock, and it shall be opened to you.

      For whoever asks, receives;

      And he who seeks, finds;

      And to him who knocks, the door is opened.

      - Matthew 7:7, The Words of Christ, NIV

      Prayer to Heal the Body

      Beloved Lord, Almighty God,

      Through the Rays of the Sun,

      Through the Waves of the Air,

      Through the All Pervading Life in Space;

      Purify and Revivify Us

      And we pray, heal our bodies, hearts, and souls.

      Amen.

      - Nayaz, Pir-o-murshid Inayat Khan

      Calling Upon God the Great

      I bow to Him who has conquered fear,

      conquered all afflictions, conquered sensual vexation,

      conquered passion, emotions, attachment, aversion and delusion,

      and has conquered pleasure and pain.

      May my misery end and the Karmic forces be annihilated.

      May I attain enlightenment and meet a peaceful death.

      May thy feet, O Noble Jina, the friend of all living beings,

      be my happy refuge!

      - Jain Namakar Mantra

      God is Within Us All

      May all I say and all I think

      be in harmony with Thee,

      God within me, God beyond me,

      Maker of the Trees.

      - Chinook Chant, Native North American

      Your Gifts to the World

      May I be protector for those without one,

      A guide for all travelers on the way;

      May I be a bridge, a boat and a ship

      For all who wish to cross (the water).

      May I be an island for those who seek one

      And a lamp for those desiring light,

      May I be a bed for all who wish to rest

      And a slave for all who want a slave.

      May I be a wishing jewel, a magic vase,

      Powerful mantras and great medicine,

      May I become a wish-fulfilling tree

      And a cow of plenty for the world.

      And the great elements such as earth,

      May I always support the life

      Of all the boundless creatures.

      And until they pass away from pain

      May I also be the source of life

      For all the realms of varied beings

      That reach unto the ends of space.

      - Shantideva, India 760 AD

      One Meaningful Word

      Better

      than if there were thousands

      of meaningless words is

      one

      meaningful

      word

      that on hearing

      brings peace.

      Better

      than if there were thousands

      of meaningless verses is

      one

      meaningful

      verse

      that on hearing

      brings peace.

      And better than chanting hundreds

      of meaningless verses is

      one

      Dhamma-saying

      that on hearing

      brings peace.

      - Dhammapada; ascribed to Buddha

      Eternal Love for All in the World

      For as long as space endures

      And for as long as living beings remain

      Until then may I too abide

      To dispel the misery of the world.

      - Shantideva

      Prayer for the Weary, Broken, and Afraid

      Benedict, when the storm rages

      around me,

      and I can hold on no more,

      when the waves of fear engulf me

      and I am weary,

      battered and sore,

      take me then and steer me

      storm-tossed, broken and afraid,

      into the arms of your safe harbor
