Dear Lord,
As we prepare to begin our third week of Lent, help us to grow closer to you
In our hearts and in our minds
Help guide us through the Holy Spirit to where you need us,
Rather than where we want to go
This season of Lent can be challenging to us, O Lord.
We must turn our eyes inward and inspect what gifts and vices fill us
We must admit to our faults and work to restore perfection you created in us
Help us to see that we are not alone
Grant us the ability to forgive others as you have forgiven us
Our world is overcrowded with people who hold grudges and hatred towards others
Help us to turn these people away from the wickedness of hatred and see the wonder of your loving light
We ask this through Christ, Our Lord. Amen.
