November 1: Lord, may we recommit ourselves to
work as Your instruments in building a world of saints.
Pray “Lord, Grant Us Saints” prayer after praying the intention for the day:
LORD,
GRANT US SAINTS
Lord,
grant us saints.
Grant
us people of God,
people
for whom God is everything.
Grant
us people
filled
with love for you;
people
who never look
without
seeing you,
never
listen
without
hearing you.
Grant
us people able to rescue the world
from
its materialism
by impressing it
with the evidence of your salvation.
Lord, we need saints.
You
are the author and the apex of sanctity;
raise
saints everywhere - -
among
the poor and among the wealthy,
among
the untutored and among the learned,
among
people of the world
and
among those consecrated - -
for
the sanctification of the world
through
the witness and proclamation of your transcendence.
Help
people understand
that
holiness is both a gift and a conquest.
Help
them understand that to be a Christian
is
to be a saint;
for
a Christian is a person conformed to God:
a
whole, integrated person.
Evoke
in people the desire to become
what
you have meant them to be,
by
walking in integrity
as
on a journey toward the dawn,
progressing
into the perfect day.
Lord,
we need saints because we need salvation.
Lord,
grant us saints!
