Our Heavenly Father!
We thank You for Your gifts: for the new summer, for the wondrous nature, and for every day of our lives! Our hearts are filled with joy, hope, and inspiration every time we see the beauty of the world You created.
We ask You: forgive our sins, cleanse our hearts, grant us a spirit of repentance, and renew us by the grace of the Holy Spirit. Bestow Your gifts upon us. Help us follow Your beauty and make our hearts a space for Your beauty and Your light. Help us to be, according to Your word, lamps in this world. Grant us a fervent, untiring spirit, directed toward You and at the same time burning with love for those around us. Hear our prayers always. For You are a loving Father, and we are Your children, saved through Your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ.
May our days be filled with the joy of living with You and the comfort of Your close presence! Lead us! Be near us! Be within us!
Amen.
