Let Us Pray
Lord Jesus, you love us with an infinite love,
and you beg for our response.
Open the ears of our hearts
so we may hear your gentle pleadings
and respond with love,
without fear of preferring you to everything else;
for it is in the light of your face
that we will discover
what to do with our affections,
with our possessions,
and even with our egos,
so often overpowering.
Grant us the grace
of taking up our daily cross
and of following you
in peace, confidence, and joy.
Amen.
