From where are fights
and
from where are quarrels among you? 

Do they not come from your desires,
waging war
among parts of your body.

You want, and you do not have,
so you murder
and you covet and you cannot obtain
  so you quarrel and fight.

You do not have,
        because you do not ask.
    You ask and
you do not  receive
        because
      you ask with wrong motives
in order that you spend it on your desires. 

Lord God,
your feed us with the living bread from heaven.
You renew our faith
increase our hope
and strengthen our love.
Teach us to hunger for Christ
who is the true and living bread
and live by every word that comes from your mouth,
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
