Lenten Senses - First Week of Lent




Lord Christ,

During this season of Lent,
I pray for sharper hearing
that I will heed your voice:
in Scripture,
in sermons,
at worship,
in nature,
through Godly people.

During this season of Lent,
I pray for improved vision
that I will clearly see your path:
of humility,
forgiveness,
obedience,
courage and trust.

Beyond the bounds of sound and sight
I pray for your touch, for your…
patient nudging,
guidance,
mercy,
and saving love.

I pray for a profound sense of your presence. Amen.
