A Prayer for Thursday, February 25, 2016

Fourteenth Day of Lent

O God,

We are creatures of habit.

We tend to commit the same sins over and over.

We fall into patterns

of acting,
of talking,
of thinking,
and
of feeling

that fall far short of who and how we should
be as your children and as followers of your Son.

Forgive us.

And this time, help us break the pattern.

Help us find new and better ways to be and to do.

Let those new and better ways become our pattern.

Help us turn and go in the direction that Jesus is leading us.

Then help us keep going that way . . .

Amen.
