Term 3              Week 3 B

Panginoong Diyos, 
Sa panimula ng araw na ito, buong pagpapakumbaba naming pinanghahawakan ang Iyong pangako sa Jeremias 30:22, “Kayo ay magiging aking bayan, at ako ang magiging inyong Diyos.”
Sapagkat kami ay Iyong mga anak, itinataboy Mo ang anumang takot sa aming mga puso sa pagharap sa araw na ito. Hinihiling po namin na punuin Mo ang aming isipan ng karunungan, ang aming mga puso ng kabutihan at pagmamahal para sa aming kapwa, at ang aming mga espiritu ng Iyong banal na kapayapaan.
Ang lahat ng ito ay aming itinataas at idinadalangin sa dakilang pangalan ni Hesus. Amen.

Lord God,
As this day begins, we humbly hold onto Your promise in Jeremiah 30:22, “You will be my people, and I will be your God.”
Because we are Your children, You drive away all fear from our hearts as we face this day. We ask that You fill our minds with wisdom, our hearts with kindness and love for others, and our spirits with Your holy peace.
All of these we lift up and pray in the great name of Jesus. Amen.
