Proposal for a time of prayer
Song
Nada te turbe
Psalm
Bonum est confidere
- O Lord, how numerous are your works,
wisely you have accomplished them all;
your creatures cover the earth,
how manifold are your marvels, O God!
- You send out your breath, they are made,
you renew the face of the earth.
For ever the glory of the Lord!
Let our Master be glad in his works!
- All life long, for the Lord I will sing,
while I live, I will praise my God;
may the Lord take pleasure in my words,
since all my joy is in God.
Reading
See, I will create new heavens and a new earth. The former things will not be remembered, nor will they come to mind. But be glad and rejoice forever in what I will create, for I will create Jerusalem to be a delight and its people a joy. (...) Before they call I will answer; while they are still speaking I will hear. The wolf and the lamb will feed together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox, and dust will be the serpent’s food. They will neither harm nor destroy on all my holy mountain,” says the Lord.

Prayer by Brother Alois
Holy Spirit, you set us free, free in order to love those you entrust to us; free also to look in a new way upon creation. All that is created comes from you as a gift which you entrust to us.
