A prayer of blessing

May God, who comes to us
in the things of this world,
bless your eyes
and be in your seeing.

May Christ,
who looks upon you
with deepest love,
bless your eyes
and widen your gaze.

May the Spirit,
who perceives what is
and what may yet be,
bless your eyes
and sharpen your vision.

May the Sacred Three
bless your eyes
and cause you to see.



The blessing is from In the Sanctuary of Women © Jan L. Richardson.  You can visit her blog and see her beautiful artwork paired with the biblical texts at http://paintedprayerbook.com/
