Lenten Prayer Week 3

A moment of silence

Lord, my heart is not proud

Nor my eyes fixed on things beyond me.

In the quiet, I have stilled my soul

Like a child that rest on its mother’s knees

I have stilled my soul within me.

• Psalm 131

Opening Prayer

Dear Lord,

Today, allow me not to set my eyes on things far beyond you.

Grant me the grace to become still, be quiet and rest for a while.

Like a child, allow me to rest in your Fatherly embrace.

Amen.
