I want to share with you a prayer I was reading, written by my namesake, St. Anselm, born in 1033, died 1109.
O Blessed Lord, who hast commanded us to love one another, grant us grace that having received Thine undeserved bounty, we may love every one in Thee and for Thee. We implore Thy clemency for all; but especially for the friends whom Thy love has given to us. Love Thou them, O Thou Fountain of love and make them to love Thee with all their heart, that they may will, and speak and do those things only which are pleasing to Thee. Amen.
