Shared Prayer

O Holy One that answers prayers We praise You for Your mercy, because Your welcome is true and Your compassion does not fail. Your Son taught that whoever comes to Him will in no wise be cast out. We come with shame, fear, and the ache of feeling far from You, asking that You draw us fully to Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith. Break the lie that we are too ruined, too late, or too unworthy to be received. Because You are faithful, we believe that grace is greater than our sin and stronger than our weakness. Teach us to come in repentance, trust, and obedience to what You have spoken. Thank You for welcoming the seeking heart, restoring the fallen, and giving hope to all who call on Christ. Let your name be glorified O Lord. Amen.
