Prayer in the Dark Night of Unknowing
O Divine Artist,
Paint the fruit of the Spirit
On the canvas of my life,
With brushstrokes of love,
With brushstrokes of joy,
With brushstrokes of peace,
With brushstrokes of patience,
With brushstrokes of kindness,
With brushstrokes of generosity,
With brushstrokes of faithfulness,
With brushstrokes of gentleness,
With brushstrokes of self-control,
With brushstrokes of divine wisdom,
With brushstrokes of divine mercy.
O Divine Artist, make my life
A masterpiece of your love!
Amen.
