Prayer to St. Patrick for humility
You were an evangelical saint who came to love a people foreign to you with all your heart. Never once did you claim that your ways were superior to theirs or try to impose your will on others. I ask that you give me your ability to act toward others with sensitivity and care. Help me to learn to discern and share the emotions, thoughts, and feelings of my friends and loved ones, of strangers and adversaries, so that I can act toward them in a loving way. I ask that the wisdom you gained in reaching out to strangers with humility and love become the essence of my spiritual life. Amen.
