Lord,
I know how much you love me.
It’s hard for me to feel it sometimes,
but I know your love is always with me.
I know how much you love me.
It’s hard for me to feel it sometimes,
but I know your love is always with me.
Help me to use your love as a way
to persevere in my Lenten intentions.
I am weak, but I know with your help,
I can use these small sacrifices in my life to draw closer to you.
peace
