Eternal God, holy Majesty, look upon our helplessness and our unbelief! May we thank You for breaking our false image of You, that we can share in the holy folly of Your love. God, we know that Your hour is coming, the hour of the Holy Spirit, who draws us into the embrace of Your love! Lead us out of our distress, free us from our resistance! May we see Your love, which we cannot understand, holy, eternal Majesty!
Bring the poor, distressed failure of our body and blood to the holy Body and Blood of Your love.
(Erich Przywara SJ /1889–1972/, Prayers of this Age, 11; during the time of World War II)
