Father in heaven,
We praise You for the cross of Christ.
At the cross we leave our selfishness, our
unrighteous anger, and our thoughts of ill-will.
We pray that Christ would live in our hearts and
give us the spirit of generosity, patience, and goodwill.
May we learn more about You each day and through
that knowledge, learn to love more like You do.
In Jesus' holy name,
Amen.

Praise be to God the Father, our Creator
and to His Son Jesus, our Redeemer
and to the Holy Spirit, our Helper and Guide.
We confess that we are sinful.
We pray that You would open our hearts
to Your word and Your instruction.
May others see Your heart through our behavior
and, as a result, come to know You.
In Jesus' name,
Amen.

Holy Father,
It's so easy to get lost in our worries -
the things we want to accomplish;
our concerns over health or finances;
our fear abut things we can't control.
We pray that Your peace would wash over us.
We pray that through Your word and by
Your Spirit we could replace our worrisome
and selfish thoughts, words, and actions with
things that honor You and draw others to You.
In Jesus' name,
Amen.
