Prayers

---

Places to go
tasks to complete
Overwhelming needs of others

Where can we
go for relief?
Where can we go for comfort?

Jesus gently whispers
Come back to me
with all your heart

I am here
waiting for my
beloved child to return

We weep knowing
we have been so
caught up in life - we forgot to live!

We ask for forgiveness
as we cry with pain
Jesus lovingly lifts us up

I can fill the
yearning of your heart
and desire of your soul

Come to me
and I will bring
you peace as well as challenge

Yes, there is the cross
but I will help carry it
when it becomes heavy

I will even carry it for you
when the pain
is too hard to bare

This is the time to
come back to me
This is the time for prayer

Lent is a time for reflection
and resting with our soul
and sacred light of our heart

Let's take this journey together
Let's climb the mountains of challenge
and celebrate resurrention of new life at Easter
