將臨期集禱祝文

將臨期第一主日

全能的上帝,求你激發我們的心志,使我們履行正義,以迎接基督的來臨;並蒙召選,在你面前,獲享天國永福。因你的聖子、我們的主耶穌基督,他和你及聖神,是獨一上帝,永生永王。阿們。

將臨期第二主日

全能仁慈的上帝,求你護佑我們,不要讓俗世的繁雜事務,阻礙我們準備迎接你的聖子;並求你使我們充滿上天的智慧,時常追隨他,與他合而為一。他和你及聖神,是獨一上帝,永生永王。阿們。

Taize daily prayer

Jesus, light of our hearts, since you rose from the dead, you have never stopped coming to us. Whatever point we may be at, you are always waiting for us. And you tell us: Come to me, you who are

尼布爾處變禱詞

(寧謐禱詞/上)

上主,力不能挽者,求俾我泰然處之。力能挽者,求俾我毅然為之。孰此孰彼,求賞我智慧以明辨之。阿們。

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and wisdom to know the difference. Amen.

(attributed to Reinhold Niebuhr)

(寧謐禱詞/下)

活在當下
珍惜當下
接納艱辛乃導向詳和的路徑。

能如基督坦誠承受這罪惡的世態,
按其現實本相,而非照我所願;
相信凡事祂會歸正妥善,
若我順服祂的旨意;
如此,我或許在今生享受相當的喜悅,
在來世中能享永遠與主同在的無上喜樂。
阿們。

Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.

(下折 from GCF 黃廣強)
