Prayer of the Week

 

 

 

Grant to us, O Lord, to pass this day in gladness and peace, without stumbling and without stain, that reaching the eventide victorious over all temptation, we may again praise you, the eternal God, blessed over all things now and for ever. Amen.

 

From the Mozarabic Sacramentary (tenth century)

 

Father God, it is hard to hope each morning, to look forward to new treasures and mercies, discovered when we are alive to your presence in all that we encounter.
Open our minds to the endless possibilities of life and power and thought.
Help us to meet you in our everyday life, in our anxieties and difficulties, for you are there with us in our pain and sorrow.
Lift us from despair to new hope.
Restore and renew us each returning day, so that we may find joy in our journey with you. Amen
