Opening Prayer
You look too close! It is not fair, Lord! You look right through me and invade the privacy of my heart. You know my dark intentions and empty heart. Save me from myself and convert me from the inside out. As You came forth from the tomb, grab my hand and lift me from the entombing selfishness I create and imprison others with. May Your Spirit plunge from the heavens into my depths, crucifying my self-destructive attitudes and behaviors, so that love, joy, peace, patient endurance, kindness, generosity, faith, mildness and chastity might be my way of life. See me and create me again as You know me to be in Your heart!
