Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to
the Father except through me. (John 14: 6)
Dear Heavenly Father,
Remove all doubt from me of your steadfast Love, and provide me the courage and faith to follow you.
Protect me from temptation, so that I may keep your commandments.
Allow me to become a person of the beatitudes, so that I can see your son in others, not just those who I know, but especially those I do not know.
Empower the Holy Spirit in my heart and open my eyes so that I can see you in the leper, tax collector, prostitute, non-believer, down trodden, sick, hungry, disenfranchised; those souls who yearn for your blessing.
Protect me from indifference and provide me the strength to leave the fold, to reach out to the one who is lost, so that their heart and eyes are opened to your truth and life.
Use me in the name of your Son, to be a glimmer of light which shines in the darkness, countering the divisiveness, anger, hate, and sin which is so prevalent in this world.
I ask this in the name of Jesus Christ your Son, Amen.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
