Short as it is, it can be memorized in a minute, tops.<\/p>\n

\n

\ntake from me whatever keeps me from Thee.<\/p>\n

My Lord and my God,
\ngrant me whatever brings me to Thee.<\/p>\n

My Lord and my God,
\ntake my self, to live wholly in Thee.<\/p>\n

St. Nicholas of Fl\u00fce, 1447-1487<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Print it out<\/a>, and stick it to your refrigerator or bathroom mirror to remind you to pray it devotedly every day.<\/p>\n

After pilgrimage, continue to pray this prayer, in order better to remain faithful to your resolutions.<\/p>\n
