Thursday prayer: Soften our hearts.

A prayer station at All Saints, Howick, on Peace Sunday.

I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you. I will remove your stony heart from your body and replace it with a living one…
Ezekiel 36:26 CEB

We pray for God to soften our hearts…

We pray for relationships in which there is conflict,
and pray for God’s grace and wisdom to guide us…

Give us, O God,
living hearts.
Amen.
