a prayer to accept our past and to press on



Dear Lord,

We have so far to go on this journey called life.

We have not arrived at our destination but we are on our way.

We sometimes get sidetracked and go astray as we look back.

Bless us Lord that we might accept what has happened to us.

Teach us to live each day as it is revealed to us.

Help us, Holy Spirit, to look forward with hope and expectation.

In the words of the Apostle, we affirm that we will follow you:

Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead;

Pressing on to reach the end of our race; 

Receiving the prize for which you, through Christ Jesus, is calling us.

In His name we pray.

Amen.
