September The Twenty-Ninth

O THOU, who art the life of all that lives, the strength of the weak, and the hope of those that be cast down, inform our minds with Thy truth, we beseech Thee, and enlarge our hearts with righteousness; strengthen our wills that they may choose the good, and refuse the evil; help us to bear each other's burdens, to forgive one another's faults, and to forbear with every defect of judgment and of temper in those with whom we live, and who daily help us. Grant this through Jesus Christ our Lord - Amen.
