I just wanted to share a prayer of sorts that just flowed out of me today and has been a comfort to me in this time of difficulty:

Sitting in the stillness of body and breath, I let go of everything and open myself to God's Grace, that he may give me what I need to have victory over my anger today.

In place of the word anger as I used it above, you can substitute whatever the current character defect of the moment is for you (fear, resentment, greed, etc.).
