Jesus, who cast out demons, remove dark clouds from this dwelling place. Open it to birdsong and flower fragrance.

When the church sanctuary is empty, the light still burns. It’s good to know that Jesus remains in our holy place, even when the pews are vacant.

Thank you that my needs are simple. Help me resist the urge to order from each colorful catalog. Lead me to make good choices.

Jesus, you spent a long time in the desert and long nights in prayer. Help me find the grace that hides in this challenging era.

A dark cloud may mean a welcome rain, but it seldom lifts my spirit to say an Alleluia. I want sunshine.
