Heavenly Father, We come before You in humility and gratitude for Your sacrifice and love. As we journey through this season of Lent, help us to turn our hearts and minds towards You. May we embrace the disciplines of fasting, prayer, and almsgiving, and seek to grow closer to You each day. Grant us the strength to overcome our weaknesses and the courage to face the challenges that lie ahead.

We ask this in Your holy name, Amen.
