O divine Master, grant that I may seek not so much to be consoled as to console, to be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love. For it is in giving that we receive, it is in pardoning that we are pardoned, and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen.” Outro (7:16–7:46): If this episode encouraged you, you can support the work of New Vida Youth at newvidachurch.com/give.

Please help me to be ready for whatever it may be. If I am to stand up, help me to stand bravely. If I am to sit still, help me to sit quietly. If I am to lie low, help me to do it patiently. If I am to do nothing, let me do it gallantly. I pray just for today, for these 24 hours, for the ability to cooperate with others according to the way Jesus taught us to live. Your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. May these words that he taught us become more than words. Please free my thinking and feeling—and the thinking and feelings of others—from all forms of self-will, self-centeredness, dishonesty, and deception. Along with my brothers and sisters, I need this freedom to make my choices today according to your desires. Send your Spirit to inspire me in times of doubt and indecision so that together we can walk along your path. Amen.” Outro (8:04–8:48) If this episode encouraged you, you can support the work of New Vida Youth at newvidachurch.com/give.
