Prayer for Lent
Lord Jesus Christ,
You came down from heaven to take on human flesh, to be one with us and share in our human experience. For 40 days, you suffered in the desert, but emerged triumphant over temptation and ready to begin announcing the Gospel.
As we begin this holy season of Lent, help us to discipline our wills and avoid temptations, so that we may turn away from sin and believe in the Gospel. You turned your face toward Jerusalem to begin your journey to Calvary; inspire us to be resolute in our ascent toward Easter. May our Lenten observance help us to die to self and experience in our lives your resurrection.
You live and reign for ever and ever. Amen.
