Holy Father,

You are the one and only all-knowing, all-seeing,

all-powerful and ever-present God.

You knew us before we were born

and have adopted us into Your family

through Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross.

You delight in us when we follow Your ways.

Let us never doubt that You hear our prayers.

Our ways are not Your ways,

but Your will is for our good.

We give to You our pain, our burdens, and our insecurities,

for You are in control and we trust You.

We praise You in Jesus’ holy name.

Amen.
