WISE STEWARDS: LENTEN PRAYERS 2017

Day 36 – Tuesday
2 Corinthians 8:1-7

     God! Let your grace overflow in our lives. Open every aspect of our being for your energizing work. Enable us to think and act beyond ourselves even when we find ourselves in the midst of difficult and challenging circumstances.
     Enable us to commit ourselves fully to You. Enable us to commit ourselves to our brothers and sisters in deep, generous and even risky ways.
     We want to serve You. We want to give ourselves as servants of your reign of forgiveness, peace and justice. We want to place all of our resources at your disposal.
     Overcome the egocentricity that prevents us from seeing our neighbors in their need. Overcome the anxiety and fear that keep us from acting in courageous ways with our resources.  
     Let the “grace of giving” flow from our lives to enrich the lives of others who need your grace as much as we do. Amen.
