How To: A Plea

God, my Teacher,

Teach me.

Teach me to give without waiting for something in return.

Teach me to love without expecting to be loved back.

Teach me to serve without any desire for accolades.

Teach me to fight for what's right without backing down.

Teach me to heal without the need for acknowledgment.

Teach me to work without complaint.

Teach me to how to live without ulterior motive.

Teach me to do your will without mine interfering.

Teach me,

God, my Teacher.

(Inspired by Ignatius of Loyola)
