Rabbi Jesus, whose wisdom encompasses the future and past, help us to let go of earthly and human things, and grant us faith to trust you, that we might set our hearts on the things of heaven and the work that you are about for this world and the next, through you who lives and reigns in glory with the Father and Holy Spirit forever and ever. Amen.
‘But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance to me, for you are setting your mind not on divine things but on human things.”‘ – Matthew 16:23
