A SPECIAL PRAYER FOR THE SEASON OF LENT Dear Lord, I need the encouragement of Lent right now. You know that. It is so easy for my life to become full of everything except you. My concentration can be scattered, my attentiveness to your Spirit dampened. So I am grateful for a Christian tradition that interrupts my status quo and calls me back to you. Thank you. I do not want this season to be a time of going through the motions. May the things I do and the things I refrain from doing be channels of attention and grace. May they help me to focus on You, opening my heart to all that you would do in me. Above all, may I draw near to you in these days. To be sure, I should do this all the time. I know that. But something about setting aside a special season helps me to remember you and to approach you. How grateful I am for the invitation to come before you and for your promise of mercy and grace! All praise be to you, O God, through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
