Dear God in heaven
In your great mercy
Turn the evil we do
Against the evil we do
So we
And our enemies
May be undone
From evil
And thereby free
To undo it.
This kind does not come out without prayer and fasting.
Jesus
Grace and peace to you…

I must become convinced and penetrated by the realization that without my love for [another] they may perhaps not achieve the things God has willed for them.
My love must be to them the “sacrament” of the mysterious and infinitely selfless love God has for them.
The words I speak to them must be no other than the words of Christ Who deigns to reveal Himself to them in me.
— Thomas Merton, No Man Is an Island
