Good and merciful God, let us experience Your presence. Let us delight in Your comforting presence, our Lord. Humble us to serve and worship You as You require of us. The wicked reject Your ways to follow the lusts of their hearts. Yet, You show them mercy and grant them Your forgiveness in Jesus Christ.
We may not like Your chastisements, but we know that they are always for our good and spiritual progress, and also to keep us from living in sin. Lord, sustain us and guide our steps so that we may always live in submission to Your will.
In Jesus’ name, we pray,
Amen.
