Father of all, true living God, ever-loving, ever-forgiving, open the door of our hearts, so that they can be filledwith your love to the brim. Your love is light andwherever light is, darkness cannot be. Let your love floodevery corner of our being and cast out the shadows. Cleanse us from the inside and let the outside be a mirror of our inner transformation. Let our light shine like a candle in the night, silently testifying to the new beingswe have become.
Let us be born again, not to death, bondage and decay, but to freedom, truth and everlasting life. Let our heartsbe pure like those of little children, overflowing with trust and surrender. Dear Lord, teach us to be guided byyour will every moment of every day and night, let your Holy Spirit work in us and through us to achieve miracles for your glory and for the benefit of our neighbours.
Change us in wonderful ways, in ways full of power, beyond our imagination, beyond our wildest dreams. For you are so much greater than our hearts, so much wiser than our minds. Take us to new realms of peace and joy, to new dimensions of love and faith, to a place where our trust in you is so strong that we can move mountains.
Take us further than we ever thought we could reach andteach us never to be afraid, for you are always with us, inus and around us, in life as well as in death, here and beyond, forever and ever.
Amen
