God's mercy and compassion are new every morning! He never tires of hearing you reach out
with your struggles and requests, and is eager in every moment to share in your joys. Will you
join us in creating some space in your day, right now, to do just that?
Dear Jesus,
Be with me now.
Help me to open the dark corners of my heart
to the life-giving light of your love.
Give me the courage to resist sin
and to receive the merciful grace of your forgiveness.
Enable me to tune out the things of this world
which clamor to lure my attention from you
and enslave my heart in sin.
Help me, and all who pray this prayer with me this week,
to quiet our minds so that we may hear your voice.
Strengthen our resolve to turn to you in sincerity and hope,
trusting your love for us
and loving you and one another in return.
Amen.
