Lenten Prayer
I started enjoying reading other people's prayers a few years ago - I think it is an incredible thing to write a prayer, to pen thoughts focused toward God that people might read, appreciate, understand, and perhaps know the same thoughts.I ran across this prayer this week - you wouldn't necessarily describe it as a Lenten prayer, but it serves as such for me this day . . . this season.
Prayer
Eternal God,
light of the minds that know you,the joy of the hearts that love you,
and the strength of the wills that serve you:
grant us so to know you that we may truly love you,
so to love you that we may fully serve you,
whom to serve is perfect freedom. Amen.
Augustine of Hippo, 15th Century Bishop
