Prayer in Preparation for Worship:
Loving and Beloved God: You sprinkle signs of your mercy along our wandering way. Keep us from faint heartedness and despair, that we might find firm faith as we journey through this Lenten season through Jesus Christ our Companion, to whom with you and the Spirit, one holy God, be honor and praise, now and forever. Amen
Prayer of Confession:
Lord, we know that your love for us is like that of a perfect parent, eternal and complete. We also know that to be made one of your children is the greatest gift that you could possibly give us. But Lord, you know that we turned our backs on you choosing to live in slavery to our own selfish desires rather than as free children of God. Help us to remember, that because of what Jesus has done, and the work of the Spirit in our lives, we are free to live as you intended; and once we remember, help us to choose to live as children of God. AMEN.
