Prayer of Eusebius [source]

by Irma 12 June 2010 @ 10:31:07

I was reading a daily meditation two days ago when I found this prayer written by Eusebius of Caesarea, Bishop and Ecclesiastical Historian. This prayer is a prayer to practice The Golden Rule (CCC#1789)

I think I should pray this to God more often because sometimes it is not that easy when we are faced with difficult people in our daily life. Or maybe it is because I am, myself, can be a difficult person. But I believe that God will help me through this prayer.

“May I be no man’s enemy,
and may I be the friend of that
which is eternal and abides.

May I never quarrel with those nearest me:
and if I do, may I be reconciled quickly.

May I love, seek, and attain only that which is good.

May I wish for all men’s happiness and envy none.

May I never rejoice in the ill-fortune
of one who has wronged me.

When I have done or said what is wrong,
may I never wait for the rebuke of others,
but always rebuke myself until I make amends.

May I win no victory that harms either me or my opponent.

May I reconcile friends who are angry with one another.

May I never fail a friend who is in danger.

When visiting those in grief
may I be able
by gentle and healing words
to soften their pain.

May I respect myself.

May I always keep tame that which rages within me.

May I accustom myself to be gentle,
and never be angry with people because of circumstances.

May I never discuss who is wicked
and what wicked things he has done,
but know good men and follow in their footsteps.”
