Lenten Reflection

Prayer for Lenten Days

Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me, and know my anxieties;

And see if there is any wicked way in me, And lead me in the way everlasting. Psalm 139:23, 24

Loving Lord! Thank You for bringing me into these days of introspection.

I take this time to analyse my ways and meditate upon the ultimate sacrifices You have made for me, a grant sinner.

Lord! There were times when I had been so mean to others and when I had lost my patience and integrity.

There were times when I had lost faith in You when I had been unfaithful to You without even acknowledging Your sacrificial love for me.

Please forgive me for all the sins I have committed against You as well as my fellow-men.
Let me regain the spiritual values I have lost and restore in me the original first love for You. I rededicate myself at Your feet, Lord!

Search me and fill me with Your divine presence so that my life can reflect the Gospel.

Let this Lenten season be a time of restoration and the means for renewed direction and perspective. Please guide me and make me a channel of blessing to others.

Thank You for helping me to reflect Your love and sacrifice.

In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen
