Prayer for the Fifth Sunday of Lent
Loving Creator of mine, I feel the pace quicken, the time draw near.
I am filled with joy as I move toward Easter and the promised reconciliation with you.
Teach me to follow the example of your Son, to be worthy of being called one of his people,
Help me to live each day as he did, turning hatred to love and conflict to peace.
I await the new life with eagerness, faith and a deep gratitude.
