A Prayer for Saturday, April 12, 2014

Thirty-Fourth Day of Lent

O God,

Thank you for progress we make in becoming who you made us to be and in becoming who by your grace we are capable of becoming.

Help us not to go backward; help us not to regress into less love, less grace, less trust, less hope, less peace, and less selflessness.

But help us also to keep going forward; help us not to stay at the point at which we have arrived but by your Spirit and love to keep making progress into more love, more grace, more trust, more hope, more peace, and more selflessness.

Thank you for the ongoing excitement of living in your grace; thank you for the perpetual wonder of always having room to grow and farther to go.

Amen.
