For the 37th day of Lent 04/12/25 Sweet Jesus, sacrifice for all sinners: Your signs are everywhere, Your love is manifest and we must share this knowledge with the whole world; for we are Your hands and must do Your service. Worthy is the Lamb who was slain. For the 36th day of Lent 04/11/25 Adonai, everlasting as the hills: hear the voice of Your people, give us your strength that we may declare Your steadfast love and faithfulness in the face of enemies and the grave; to the glory of Your holy name. For the 36th day of Lent 04/10/25 Jesus, You are the truth and that truth is eternal: we need to know that You and the Father share one nature, that You were glorified to show that nature to all creation so that we might know the truth; in the name of the Logos, triune Lord. For the 35th day of Lent 04/09/25 O Lord of glory, whose power never ebbs: let us walk into the fire of others’ unbelief to stand for Your law, for Your love; even in the midst of flame let us stand in Your wisdom; this we pray in Your Eternal Name. For the 31st day of Lent 04/05/25 Jesus, from whom flows the living river of mercy: open our hearts to Your love. We must know that it matters not where we find You, but that we do and believe, that we speak our faith to every nation. In the name of the Father who called our Christ out of Galilee. For the 30th day of Lent 04/04/25 Lord Jesus, you are the Christ, the anointed One yet, many did not know You: grant that we may know You Truly, speak that truth to the whole world and do Your holy will to every person; this we ask in Thy perfect name. For the 29th day of Lent 04/03/25 Oh Christ of glory, you who are the Truth of the Father, hear us as we beg to know Your truth: give us the truth of Moses, who saw You face to face, give us the truth of John who declared Your truth yet we did not see, give us the truth of Your sacrifice for the whole world. For the Father is, for You Christ are, for the Holy Spirit is, three eternal a single truth for ever and ever. For the 28th day of Lent 04/02/25 Blessed Lord Jesus, You and the Father are one, eternal and manifest: hear the voice of Your people. Let us know that to love You is to love the Father, that to serve You is to serve the Father and to love Your people is to honor the One God in Holy Trinity. We beg to know You in Your glory. For the 27th day of Lent 04/01/25 Sweet Jesus, healing flows from You in an everlasting flow: let us walk into your water. Teach us to pick up our matts and walk to Your well, teach us to deny those who in their blindness reject You, help us to accept the grace of Your eternal love; all this we ask in Your Holy name.
