Christ with me, Christ before me, Christ behind me, Christ in me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me, Christ on my right, Christ on my left, Christ when I lie down, Christ when I sit down, Christ when I arise, Christ in the heart of every man who thinks of me, Christ in the mouth of everyone who speaks of me, Christ in every eye that sees me, Christ in every ear that hears me. -Excerpt from ‘St. Patrick’s Breastplate. (St. Patrick’s Prayer) Google it to read the whole prayer, it’s too long to post on IG but worth the read. It’s a powerful prayer by a man who was kidnapped as a child, raised as a slave, escaped, found God and then returned to his kidnappers and spent the rest of his life ministering to them in Ireland.
