A Prayer for Sunday, March 1, 2015

Second Sunday in Lent

O God,

We celebrate today because

beyond repentance lies forgiveness,
beyond sin lies grace,
beyond guilt lies mercy,
beyond alienation lies restoration,
beyond despair lies hope,
beyond fasting lies feasting,
and
beyond death lies life.

We celebrate all those truths today because
beyond Jesus’s crucifixion lies Jesus’s resurrection.

Help us to celebrate well …

Amen.
