Lord, for tomorrow and its needs, I do not pray. Keep me, my God, from stain of sin just for today.

Let me both diligently work and duly pray, Let me be kind in word and deed, just for today.

Let me be slow to do my will, prompt to obey; Help me to sacrifice myself, just for today.

And if today my tide of life should ebb away, give me thy Sacraments divine, Sweet Lord today.

So for tomorrow and its needs I do not pray, But keep me, guide me, love me, Lord, Just for today.

-St. Augustine

    Love this. My husband teaches a course on St. Augustine. Have you read The Confessions? I love St. Augustine's story.

    No, I haven't read the Confessions. I love his story and St. Monica's.
