Great and eternal God, I come before you empty.  Fill me with faith, with a faith of childlike simplicity and persuasive vitality.  Fill me with hope, with a hope that never falters because it is rooted and grounded in your constancy.  Fill me with love, love for you whom I cannot see, love for loved ones and friends of whom I can not see enough, love for the unlovely whom I pretend not to see.  Bountiful God, fill me once again with faith, hope and love that I may more effectively serve you.  In the Spirit of Christ, Amen.
