Emotionally Intelligent Prayer

By Stephen W. Hiemstra

Almighty Father,

All praise and honor, power and dominion, truth and justice are yours, because you loved us first while we were as yet unlovable and taught us to calm our hearts to make room in them for your Holy Spirit.

Forgive us for being quick to become angry, fighting over fashionable tennis shoes and other bobbles that decorate our ignorance. Help us to moderate our emotions like Jesus

Thank you for the example of Jesus Christ, who taught us to love one another and to make room in our lives for you.

In the power of your Holy Spirit, build up the church. Open our hearts, illumine our minds, strengthen our hands in your service.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.
