HOLY SPIRIT TENSION PRAYER

Come, Holy Spirit:
Replace the tension within me
    with Your holy relaxation.
Replace the turbulence within me
    with Your sacred calm.
Replace the anxiety within me
    with Your quiet confidence.
Replace the fear within me
    with Your Trust.
Replace the winter within me
    with Your spring.
Replace the bitterness with me
    With Your sweet grace.
Replace the darkness within me
    With Your gentle light.
Replace the coldness within me
    With Your loving warmth.
Replace the night within me
    With Your day.
Replace the winter within me
    With Your spring.
Straighten my crookedness.
Fill my emptiness.
Dull the edge of my pride.
    Sharpen the edge of my humility.
Light the fires of my love.
    Quench the flames of my lust.
Let me see myself as You see me
    That I may see You as You have promised, for
"Blessed are the pure of heart,
    for they will see God." Mt 5:8.
