Help us to listen to one another and give those we encounter our full attention, O God. May we truly hear what people around us are saying. Let us remember how much we want to be understood and attempt to do the same for others. May our purpose follow your call to love each other. Make us aware when our direction falls off course and becomes selfish and help us to redirect our lives. Holy Spirit, guide and form us as we attempt to do your will. A,enm
