ABC Prayer

I got this from Iyanla Van Zant's book, Until Today. Sometimes I say this prayer when I get up in the morning and ask the Divine to bless all of you, my loved ones :)

" I open my heart and mind to be aware...how my ABCs will uplift my spirit.

Almighty Creator of the Universe
Beloved Father, Mother God
Create in me a clean heart this day.
Deliver me from the limitations of the ego.
Exalt Your presence in my mind.
Forgive all that I have held against you, myself, and others.
Grant me peace this day.
Hold me steadfastly with the boundaries of your truth.
Inspire my heart to know you, my ears to hear you, and my eyes to recognize you.
Justify me in the presence of all enemies.
Knead my heart with words of kindness
Let no harm befall me or my loved ones.
May all I do this day glorify you.
Nourish me with your wisdom.
Open my eyes to know your truth.
Purge my heart of all things that are offensive to your law.
Quiet my soul in the midst of confusion.
Renew my connection to you.
Save me from my secret fears.
Teach me to trust you at all times.
Use all that you have given me to serve you.
Victory for your cause is my desire.
Walk with me so that my strength will never be diminished.
Xamine my heart continually.
Your love and grace are my good fortune.
Zealously I commit myself to your will for my life.

Until today, you may not have been aware of the power of knowing the alphabet. Just for today, practice making each letter in the alphabet come alive in your life. "
Today I am devoted to relearning the entire alphabet of life.

I like how she mentions God as Mother and Father. She is a priestess of Obatala.
