Benches #8 Plaque: Pete's Prayer: Great Spirit, may I achieve greatness, but as you define it. Let me be a channel of your love to every creature I touch. Help me enrich the lives of the poor in spirit with my only reward that I be a true instrument in your hand. I do this because you are the ultimate goodness and striving toward that brings meaning to my fleeting life. Without you, we are all just insignificant cogs in a mindless machine. Instead, I thank you for coming into my life, for this breath, and for the wonders, epiphanies, miracles, comfort, and love showered on my every day. Born as your child, may I bring you delight growing into the man you want me to be. Keep my pursuit of riches focused on the good it can produce, not on a hunger for power and consumption. May your grace inspire and guide me to understand my mission, and help me earn the courage and wisdom, the perseverance and kindness to fulfill it. Amen
