call upon him while he is near. (Isaiah 55:6 NABRE)
Lord, you are merciful to me even though I do not deserve your mercy. You generously forgive my sins which I seem unable to change by my own efforts. So again, I look for you now. I call for you while I can. I humbly place all of myself before you: My needs, my hurts, my joys, my sins, my praise. I ask that you accept what little I can offer. I ask for your mercy and forgiveness. I ask for healing and comfort. I ask for courage and peace.
Please Lord, forgive my sins and in your compassion pour out your mercy upon me so that I might confidently submit myself to your holy will, which is love and mercy itself.
Today, I will seek the Lord's forgiveness and perform the day's work in a spirit of gratefulness and holiness.
Saint Seraphin of Montegranaro, who did ordinary work in a spirit of holiness, pray for us.
