A daily prayer blog by Bob Hostetler, the author of The Red Letter Prayer Life and the 31 Ways to Pray for Your Kids iPhone and iPad app. Just one prayer each day. Seldom more. Seldom very long. Sometimes personal. Sometimes original. Always sincere.
A Prayer on Maundy Thursday
Lord,
wash,
not my feet only,
but also
my hands
and
my head.
And
my heart.
And
my mind.
And
my life.
Amen.
I've been praying a variation of your prayer for over a year now. It's especially helpful during insomnia. I've experimented with adding other words life soul and spirit, but they don't add much. Here's how I've memorized it:
Jesus, If you must wash my feet wash also my hands wash also my head wash also my heart wash also my mind wash also my life.
Lord,
There is a lot of info on this blog: very helpful
