## Written prayer

Dear Lord, Thank You for showering us with mercy and grace. Although we were sinners, You died for us and brought us close to You. Today, we reject the shame of our past and run toward You with purpose. We reject vain religiosity and self-righteousness. We say no to any prideful thoughts of superiority. We want to live lives that reflect Your character, Lord Jesus. We don’t want to judge others for their sins. Instead, empower us to show mercy to others just as You have shown mercy to us. Give us the wisdom to exercise love without forsaking the truth. Give us eyes to see people as You see them, Lord. In Jesus’ name, we pray, Amen.
