Faith is a living, bold trust in God's grace, so certain of God's favor that it would risk death a thousand times trusting in it. Such confidence and knowledge of God's grace makes you happy, joyful and bold in your relationship to God and all creatures. The Holy Spirit makes this happen through faith. Because of it, you freely, willingly and joyfully do good to everyone, serve everyone, suffer all kinds of things, love and praise the God who has shown you such grace. - Martin Luther

Fifth Sunday in Lent - Prayer

From Real Prayers by Wendell Frerichs

Lord, you know us better than we know ourselves. You know our needs, our hopes, our fears, our likes, our dislikes, our loves, our frustrations, all our ways. Continue to watch over us as we walk on this daily pilgrimage with each other. Teach us to help each other, to care for one another, and above all to tend each other's faith. Amen
