Opening prayer

Dear God, exalt your name for your ways lighten our wrong paths – a
paragon of virtues. Your patience is everlasting and your unconditional
love is heart-warming. Despite this world’s crises, you continually
sustain us through satisfying our needs. You let us find bliss in our own
simple living. We honestly admit our blemishes, undesirable emotions,
and wrong decisions. We are nothing without your grace. Yet despite
our sinful tendencies, our hearts are pleased for the ample blessings.
We implore for good well-being and sound mind. And may compassion
and empathy be in our midst. Amen.

Closing Prayer
Our Father, you are worthy of adoration. You are infinite, immutable,
and glorious. Kingly but humble enough to save us. Honestly,
sometimes we are poor in spirit, fast to anger, and prone to
temptations, but you have opened your arms and welcomed us in your
keeping. We are grateful for your unending provision as we surpass
mountains in life. Though we may feel defeated, we know that you will
keep your promise. And we will continue to tell the mountain how
great you are. Amen.
