Almighty God our Father, as we dwell in the majesty of the world about us and share in the mysteries of 'Thy kingdom, we are renewed by the indwelling of Thy Spirit and constantly fulfill the power of Thy creation. We humbly pray that Thou wilt cleanse us from all doubt and fear, and instill within each of us a faith that will not shrink but will remain steadfast and true. We beseech Thee to ever keep us walking firmly in this faith, and evermore defend us from all adversities; who livest and reignest, one God, world without end. Amen.
