Prayer 1515: Third Sunday in Lent

An ancient depiction of Jesus speaking to the Samaritan woman at the well. Picture not mine.

Almighty God, our prayers rise to You with the rising sun: let us worship You and give thanks in your holy places.

Give us the wisdom to follow with gratitude when You lead us through the wilderness of sin that envelops us.
In places of contention and testing, let us witness to the power of the One whose mercies never cease.
Give us living water, that we may worship You, Lord Christ, in spirit and in truth, testifying to your saving love. 

Holy One, you know what is in our hearts: spread the fold of your mercy over us, and give comfort to those we now name.

Amen.
