Grant me, Oh Lord, the Wisdom to see the simplicity of your truths compared to the maze of men's religious confusion.
Reference: Ecclesiastes 2:3 I explored with my mind how to stimulate my body with wine while my mind was guiding me wisely, and how to take hold of folly, until I could see what good there is for the sons of men to do under heaven the few years of their lives.

Grant me, Oh Lord, the Love to enable me to continue being patience, long-suffering, tenderhearted and gentle toward all men despite their iniquities.
Reference: Ephesians 4:2 with all humility and gentleness, with patience, showing tolerance for one another in love,

Grant me, Oh Lord, a pure heart, so pure that the Light of Your Countenance is revealed continuously to me as I walk through this world filled with almost total darkness.
