The First Week of Lent

Friday

Creator of my Life,

renew me: bring me to new life in you.

Touch me and make me feel whole again.

Help me to see your love

in the passion, death and resurrection of your son.

Help me to observe Lent

in a way that allows me to celebrate that love.

Prepare me for these weeks of Lent

as I feel both deep sorrow for my sins

and your undying love for me.
