Detachment

 

O Lord! Unto Thee I repair for refuge, and toward all Thy signs I set my heart.

 

O Lord!  Whether traveling or at home, and in my occupation or in my work, I place my whole trust in Thee.

 

Grant me then Thy sufficing help so as to make me independent of all things, O Thou Who art unsurpassed in Thy mercy!

 

Bestow upon me my portion, O Lord, as Thou pleasest, and cause me to be satisfied with whatsoever Thou hast ordained for me.

Thine is the absolute authority to command.
