LENTEN PRAYERS 2018: PRAYING THE DAILY GOSPEL

THIRD MONDAY
Mark 5:21-43

Jesus, Emmanuel, we rejoice that You are able to act in life-giving ways when all resources have failed and where hope is nearly exhausted.

You are the source of hope that generates acts of trust, some timid, some bold, among those who are in desperate need. You speak a word that quells our fears. Then, somehow, in nearness and vulnerability, by a touch or a word, your power for new life is released. You astonish us and become a living sign that the reign of God is present among us. 

Free us to tell about the healing and liberation that You have worked among us. Help us to share our hope with those who are hopeless and know no place to turn. Let our sharing of good news cause many to reach for You. Amen.
