So compassionate, so faithful, so loving You are Our Father.

We ask You to increase our faith and our love for You that we may use blogging as an instrument to fulfill Your purposes. May we become bloggers of truth and promoters of peace.

Help us to be steadfast in our Christian commitment that visitors may find in our blogs a source of encouragement and inspiration. Give us strength to proclaim Your word, that we may play our part in breaking down the walls of hostility in the world and use our blogs to strengthen the bonds of friendship, solidarity and love.

Make our hearts meek and humble that we may treat our readers as friends, not as unique hits, that we may strive to change ourselves for the better more often than we pimp our site templates, that we may find more time to ease the pain of someone in our own home than to reply to comments left by strangers, that we may interact with our next door neighbors as often as we chat with our blogrolled friends, that we may be more concerned about helping the less privileged than about the number of subscribers to our RSS feeds.

Deliver us, Father, from spams and viruses, from pride and selfishness, and from the temptation to replicate images without permission and copy ideas without crediting the original authors.

May we always be united as a network of bloggers and friends working together in Your name. May our blogs lead us closer to You.

We ask all these through Christ, Our Lord. Amen.

    Hello Father! :D
    Its so interesting to know that it’s a Filipino priest who owns this blog and made this prayer :)
    just to let you know, I’m here because our teacher gave us homework to translate this to tagalog. and I’m suuure to have a hard time :) ) (be sure too that many more of my classmates will be visiting your site.) anyway, I’m still amazed by all this and commend you for using more up-to-date methods of evangelizing (wish more of the Church would too!). :D Anyway, just wanted to leave a comment :P

    keep it up and Godspeed, Father :)

    Mushu
    P.S. I have a Manga book to but its not the whole bible, and the art in your Manga Bible is better. :D

    benn said:

    hi Father!wow, your blog’s cool. :D anyway, like mushu, may i have permission to translate your Blogger’s Prayer to Filipino? It’s part of our Filipino homework. :D
    and like mushu, I do admire your use of modern technology to spread the Word of God. i hope that more young people like us would see that the Church is not only confined to very strict conventions but could also adopt to the changes in the world, just like this blog. i’ll come back occasionally to read your entries. :D

    God bless Father!

    Benn R. :D

    Father, nice prayer! :) i also am required to translate this to tagalog! I am glad that my teacher instructed us to do this, and i am glad that she introduced this to us! I am sure i will enjoy translating this to Tagalog. hahaha! :) I also enjoy blogging and jotting what i feel on paper, so I will always remember this prayer! Thankyou Father for the nice prayer! God bless you! :)

    Hi Father. I think this is a lovely prayer. ANd here are two of my favorite lines: “May we always be united as a network of bloggers and friends working together in Your name. May our blogs lead us closer to You.”

    BTW, I hope you won’t mind if I share it in my blog.

    Please also pray for me… I have an interview tomorrow and I really want to work there. I wish that’s what Lord also want for me. It’s really hard to look for a job here but i’m keeping my fingers crossed. Oh, Lord please say yes to this one. I kept looking everywhere without knowing that You’re always at my side, not leaving me in spite that i tend to forget You. Please give me a chance and I’m sorry..

    Thanks for all!!!
