Prayer (Romans 7:15-25a)
Jesus Christ our Lord -
In our inmost selves, we delight in Your law.
Yet, an internal struggle remains as we vacillate between doing what we deeply know is good and doing what we hate.
When we fail to fully live into who You created us to be, we sin.
Forgive us for not doing Your good law and for contributing to the world’s suffering.
Free us from the captivity of sin, and rescue our inmost selves, so we may do Your will.
Amen.
