To conquer our mess - Easter morning prayer





Risen Lord Jesus,
Son of God
King of Heaven
Enthroned in majesty.

You were born into our mess
You grew up amongst our mess, though you made no mess of your own
And you allowed yourself to be killed in a horrible way
To conquer our mess.

So that we could be free; free of our mess.

Free to worship you
With no barriers, nothing in the way
Free to see you more clearly, to know who you are
To worship you fully
To soak up who you are in all your love, your forgiveness, your generosity
Free to become more and more like you.

We love you Jesus,
We love that you offer us a new start each morning
That you hold nothing against us.
That we are yours and you are ours forever.
Because you made it that way that first Easter.

Thank you that because of what you’ve done nothing can separate us from the love of God and thank you for all the promise that holds for us and our world.

Amen
