A Prayer for Sunday, March 9, 2014

First Sunday in Lent

O God,

As we step out of our Lenten mode to observe the Lord’s Day, show us

how celebration occurs in the midst of mourning,
how reconciliation occurs in the midst of repentance,
how salvation occurs in the midst of seeking,
how acceptance occurs in the midst of denial, and
how resurrection occurs in the midst of death.

As we spend these forty days pursuing the truth about ourselves and about our world, use our Sundays to show us the greater truth about you and about your mercy.

Amen.
