A Simple Sunday Prayer Which Could Bear Being Uttered Daily

In the movie Sergeant York, there is a scene where York is sitting at the table with Mother York and his brother and sister preparing to eat dinner.  Mother York offers up a simple prayer, which, even if you’re not receptive to offering up prayers, could bear being at least a principle worth embracing.

Mother York begins her simple prayer asking for a blessing on the vittles about to be eaten, but it is the ending of Mother York’s prayer which I recommend to you.

”...And help us not to be beholden to anybody.”
