a prayer

I forgot how I came across this prayer but it has struck a very sensitive chord in me....

Lord, we pray that we shall never judge a brother's actions until we know his motives. It is better to err on the side of charity than to misjudge anyone. Remind us that the faults we see in others' lives are sometimes true of us. May our expectation of others be tempered by an awareness of our own weakness. Lord, help us to lovingly build up one another and show kindness for your honor and glory.

I printed out this prayer and placed in it my work folder. Now if only I could pray outside of work....
