Lent 2008 - 3rd Sunday


"Lord, open my lips, and my mouth shall declare your praise."

Loving Father,
So many times I turn away from you
and always you welcome me back.

Your mercy and love gives me confidence
Thank you for the invitation to share, fast and pray
so that you can form a new heart within me.

Your powerful compassion for my weaknesses
leads me to ask for mercy
and await with great hope the Easter joy you share with us.
