Here’s
a prayer for Ash Wednesday from Christine Sine’s Godspace website.
Prayer for Ash Wednesday
God,
we are marked with ashes,
symbols
of repentant hearts
and
contrite spirits.
We
want to be transformed,
to be
made new,
to
learn the freedom
of
serving no other master but you.
Let
us heed your call,
and
walk with Christ
into
the wilderness.
Help
us to see beneath the surface;
not denial
and sacrifice,
not
sin and death,
but
transformation,
new
life in Christ.
Let
us seek to be changed,
let
us seek to be so transfigured
by
your power and glory
that
we desire above all else
to be
worthy citizens
of
your new world of peace and justice.
Amen.
