We Remember Heahmund, Bishop of Sherborne, Martyr, 871
Passion Sunday
Today we pray for those living in Trevor Close, Trevor Crescent, Tennyson Close, Tintern Avenue, The Croft, and Sandhill Road.
Please pray for all those involved in the Ukrainian War
and the people in Gaza, especially all those injured and killed
Prayer for Lent :
My loving Lord,
it's so hard to love the world sometimes
and to love it the way Jesus did seems impossible.
Help me to be inspired by his love and
guided by his example.
Most of all, I want to accept that I can't do it alone,
and that trying is an arrogance of self-centeredness.
I need you, dear God, to give me support in this journey.
Show me how to unlock my heart
so that I am less selfish.
Let me be less fearful of the pain and darkness
that will be transformed by you into Easter joy.
Morning
Dear Lord,
You are all powerful.
Please crush my insecurities and doubts
so I will be an effective witness of Your strength.
Cover me in Your Spirit today
and equip me to fend off attacks from the Enemy.
In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
(Gwen Smith)
Evening
Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray the Lord my soul to keep.
If I should die before I wake,
I pray the Lord my soul to take. Amen
