LAMENTATIONS 5:21 (ABP)
Please, God, accept us back! We're ready for things to be the way they were before.
TITUS 3:4-5 (CEV)
God gives a fresh start to those who will accept it.
PRAYER
Gracious God, you are generous in granting second starts. You are merciful -- quick to forgive our sins, while you empower us for new lives. It's a great deal! Yet, we struggle to accept the fullness of your generosity -- falling back into defending the rightness of our thinking and actions. Help me to truly and completely turn to you as Savior and Lord. It's all about your mercy! Amen.
THE LORD’S PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your Name, your Kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and forever. Amen.

TITUS 3:4-5 (CEV)
God our Savior showed us
how good and kind he is.
He saved us because
of his mercy,
and not because
of any good things
we have done.
God washed us by the power
of the Holy Spirit.
He gave us new birth
and a fresh beginning.
