LENTEN PRAYERS
WALKING WITH JESUS
Day 8: Thursday
Mark 1:35-39
Christ Jesus, we rejoice
that You are constantly teaching us as we walk with You. We rejoice that You were constantly attuned to
the presence and desire of God, so that even in the midst of many demands, You
sought out silent communion, in solitary places, in order that You might
maintain a clear vision of the reign that You were inaugurating, as God’s
agent, and so that your priorities remained clear and your energy was consistently renewed for
the exercise of your healing, liberating, redeeming authority.
As we hear your word, and
see confirming signs of healing and liberation, remind us to draw close to God
in communion. Lead us into prayerful
solitude. Clarify our understanding of
the meaning and intent of God’s reign among us.
Focus our vision on the people and labors to which You have called
us. Energize us so we may carry on your
healing and liberating ministry as glad followers in your footsteps. Amen.
