Prayer at NCCJ Thanksgiving
November 16, 2005, United Temple, Chicago
By Abdul Malik Mujahid
All praise is due to God, the Lord
of the worlds, the most Merciful.
We have much to be thankful for.
Thank You God for all the Prophets
You have sent to guide us.
Thank You for giving us their
lessons in peace and justice.
Thank You for the inspirational
example of simple living given to us through the original inhabitants of this
great land.
Thank You for their generosity
without which the Pilgrims could not have survived.
Thank You for blessing us with
excellent shelter at a time when so many of us remain homeless and others live
in huts of poverty.
We seek Your forgiveness for the
sins of misusing our wealth.
We seek Your forgiveness for living selfishly.
We seek Your forgiveness for abusing Your bounties.
We seek Your forgiveness for ignoring the more than 1.2
billion people in the world who currently live at less than a dollar a day.
Help us become better neighbors and better human beings.
Help us make this nation and the world a better place.
Bless our resolve to become better
citizens of our global village
Open our hearts towards our
neighbors and open their hearts towards us
Help us consume less and give
more.
God bless us and our efforts in
His cause.
