Prayer 2584: For Shrove Tuesday


O God Our Peace, 
God of the Seeking,
who holds the winds in the hollow of your hand,
accept our prayers and praises
as we humbly offer them to You,
in hope, in faith, in trust.

Purify our hearts ands set them ablaze, Lord Christ,
that we may make our intentions
like steel forged in the hearth of your steadfast love.
May we reflect upon your blessings,
O Redeemer and Savior,
and cast ourselves upon your law
as the foundation of our lives and actions,
loving each other as You love us,
fiercely and without fail.

Merciful One, God Our Help and Hope,
by the power of your Holy Spirit,
grant us the courage and the will to persevere,
and give your angels charge
over the seeking and the penitent,
as we bend the knee before You, Blessed One,
and lay our concerns before You as we pray.

Amen.
