Teresa of Avila was a Spanish mystic saint. She had visions of Jesus and God. Saint Teresa had several prayers, but this one I found inspirational during my darker days of depression. I hope it helps you as much as it did me.

 

Saint Teresa’s Prayer

May today be peace within.

May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be.

May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith.

May you use those gifts that you have received,

And pass on the love that has been given to you.

May you be content knowing that you are a child of God.

Let this presence settle into your bones, and

Allow you soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love.

It is there for each and every one of us.

Amen.
