Lord God, our Creator, Redeemer and Sustainer:
We praise You for Your mercy and grace.
While we are still sinners, You show us the
path to salvation through Your Son, Jesus.
We pray that Your hand be upon us,
and that You guide our feet to
continue on the path of peace.
Jesus saved humanity through
total obedience to the Father.
Keep us in the Word; soften our hearts
and minds to strive for obedience to You
so that our words and actions honor You.
In Jesus' name,
Amen.
