Prayer for Ash Wednesday:
Lord Jesus Christ you gave your life for the salvation of all people.
For you have been merciful to us, and have given us the way to joyful hope in
you.
We beg you to pour your mercy on us while we journey through this season
of prayer, fasting, and alms giving. We are all sinners, and desire to reform
our hearts and lives so that we may receive your graces with our whole being.
Help us to be humble in our words and actions. We seek to find you in the
silence and to sharpen our faith through these acts of penance.
During this Lenten season, may we be a blessing to others and
ambassadors of your love, your sacrifice, and your mercy.
"Behold,
now is a very acceptable time; behold, now is the day of salvation."
We
ask all of this in your most holy and perfect name. Amen.
