LENTEN PRAYERS 2018: PRAYING THE DAILY GOSPEL

FIFTH SATURDAY
Mark 9:14-29

Healing, Liberating God, how seldom we allow ourselves to be overwhelmed by all of the wonders that You have done among us. How, uncommon it is for us to hasten to enter your presence.

When people come among us seeking healing or freedom from spiritual oppression, we are frequently stymied by their needs. We do not have much faith that You can act in healing, liberating ways among us. We are slow to turn to You, in prayer, for the deliverance of others.

We believe. And we cry, “Help our unbelief,” but our faith seems to stay timid and weak. 

Transform us! Deepen our faith! Enable us to be agents of your reign that, in the end, will not be stymied by any other power or authority. Enable us to be agents of life that is full, free, and fruitful. Amen.
