God of new life,
As we journey through the myriad of challenges and emotions Holy Week brings, fill us all with the hope of new life.
Empower me to rely on your love, your care, and your strength as I face challenges and struggles that overwhelm me.
Help me to seek your help, your hope, and your promise of new life when life is most difficult.
Help me to celebrate your love and blessings when life is most joyful.
Remind me that you are the one who brings life, even from death.
Remind me that you love me and the whole world enough to transform us all.
Amen.
This prayer was posted previously in 2016. I am sharing it again because it seems to speak to our current moment in Holy Week 2020 as well.
