A Prayer of Single Persons

Jesus my Lord, Who became man and graced us with the beauty of Your life
and with the example of faith, purity and love; help me, I pray, to love
You with all my mind, heart and soul, and to live according to Your teachings.
Strengthen me when temptations strike, that I may remain pure in thought
and steadfast in virtue, doing only things that are pleasing to You.
Guide me to live Your will and not my own as I look to the future. Grant
me faith, courage and love, that I may serve You in holiness all the
days of my life, through the prayers of the Theotokos and of all the
Saints. Amen.
