Prayer Quotes - by Columbanus




Lord, I pray that you may be a lamp
for me in the darkness. Touch my soul
and kindle a fire within it, that it may
burn brightly and give light to my life.


Thus my body may truly become your temple,
lit by your perpetual flame burning
on the altar of my heart. And may the light
within me shine on my brethren
that it may drive away the darkness
of ignorance and sin from them also.


Thus together let us be lights to
the world, manifesting the bright beauty
of your gospel to all around us.

—COLUMBANUS
