A Prayer to the Most Merciful by Assad Malik

Note: Even though I use the term Allah to refer to my god, this prayer is applicable
           towards people of various faiths (Wiccan, Christian, Buddhist, Native
          American, Jewish, Hindu, and etc).
 

                                           Dear Allah,

                                    Give me the courage
                                    To overcome the daily obstacles
                                    The patience
                                    When working with difficult people
                                    The love
                                    To motivate, encourage and comfort others
                                    The empathy
                                    To be aware of other's needs,
                                    Taking me outside of my own comfort level
                                    The ability
                                    To show others the goodness within themselves
                                    And the strength to
                                    Forgive
