PRAYER
Lamb of God, I humbly thank you for taking away the shame of my faults and failures. Your promise of unconditional love calms my fear of judgment. I pause now to bring freely and fearlessly each of my cares, joys, and shortcomings to you. Thank you for loving me, faults and all. Help me to love others unconditionally. Amen.

Our Father in Heaven,
we hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening in heaven.
Give us enough food for today.
Forgive us our wrongdoing,
and we’ll forgive those who have wronged us.
Shield us from the trials and temptations that come our way.
