“Lord Jesus Christ, my God,<br />
You have said, “Apart <strong>from</strong><br />
Me, You can do nothing.” In<br />
faith I embrace Your words,<br />
Lord, and I entreat Your<br />
goodness. Help me to carry<br />
out <strong>the</strong> work I am about to<br />
begin, and to bring it to<br />
completion. To You I give<br />
glory, Fa<strong>the</strong>r, Son and Holy<br />
Spirit. Amen”<br />
“Always allow time to bring<br />
your personal concerns and<br />
requests to <strong>the</strong> Lord. Let<br />
each person in <strong>the</strong> family<br />
share in this by using<br />
petitions such as:<br />
“Let us pray for” (specific<br />
people and situations)<br />
“Let us thank God for . . . “<br />
“Let us ask God’s forgiveness<br />
for . . .”<br />
