Jesus said,
"This is the time of fulfillment.
The reign of God is at hand!
Reform your lives and believe in the gospel."
Jesus, reform our lives.
The kingdom is at hand.
Your kingdom is at hand.
Change our lives.
Make us humble.
We can do nothing without you.
Give us wisdom.
We need your Holy Spirit.
Help us to think of others instead of ourselves.
We dream of material things.
Let us dream of spiritual things.
Let us seek after things not of this world.
Let us put aside the things of this world.
Yes, we need to eat, but not as much as we do.
Help us to give up things that we do not need.
Help us to fill our lives with your gifts, O Lord.
These are things that money cannot buy.
Fill our lives with you, O Lord.
Help us to stand up for what is right.
Let us be your witness in this world.
Give us our daily bread.
We need your words in the Bible.
We pray for your kingdom to come.
Change us, O Lord.
Change the world.
Help us to see things as you see them.
Help us to reach out to those around us.
Help us to share this gift of faith.
Come Lord Jesus into our lives.
Amen.
