Lent Prayer ;
Loving God,
I am just beginning to realize how much you love me.
Your son, Jesus was humble and obedient.
He fulfilled your will for him by becoming human and suffering with us.
I ask you for the desire to become more humble
so that my own life might also bear witness to you.
I want to use the small sufferings I have in this world
to give you glory.
Please, Lord, guide my mind with your truth.
Strengthen my life by the example of Jesus.
Help me to be with Jesus in this week
as he demonstrates again his total love for me.
He died so that I would no longer
be separated from you.
Help me to feel how close you are
and to live in union with you.
Morning
Lord, help me to hear you saying,
"I am your hope" over all the other voices.
Lord, your word says,
you are the hope for hopeless
so I'm running to you with both hands
stretched out and grabbing on to you.
Fill me up with hope and give me
a tangible reminder today that
hope is an unbreakable spiritual lifeline (Hebrews 6:19-20).
God, you know those things in my heart
that I barely dare to hope for,
today I give them to you,
I trust them to you, and ask that you
because I know that you can do more than I could ever guess,
imagine or request in wildest dreams (Eph 3:20).
God, you are my hope and I trust you. Amen.
(Wendy can Eyck)
Evening
Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray the Lord my soul to keep,
watch and guard me through the night,
and wake me with the morning light. Amen.
