Lord, thank you for your great mercy
and the urgency of your call to live as your disciple.
Thank you because, even when I mess up,
you give me another chance.
Help me to bring the good news of your love to others
so that they, too, may turn back to your love.
Give me the courage to shake off my complacency
and choose this Lent to live more fully in your love and grace.
I pray this knowing that you desire the fullness of life for all.
Amen.
