Resurrecting God, Easter leaves me breathless. Easter leaves me speechless and hopeful, eager and awestruck. Easter tethers my wandering heart to you, as only awe can. So may every other moment of awe bring me back to you as well. May every starry night, first step, flower in spring, and sunrise bring me back to you—like muscle memory. I am speechless and hopeful, eager and awestruck. What a gift it is to be alive. Amen.

Gracious God, my wandering heart loves to flee. How many times have I run when the conversation got hard? How many times have I shied away from the truth because it was painful? Like a parent with a child, scoop me back up and bring me close to your heart again. Give me the courage to stay, to talk, to listen, and to change when needed. Humbly I pray, amen.

Jesus of the garden, you know what lament feels like. You know what grief looks like. You know what praying through the night sounds like. So today I bring you my prayers of lament. See the cracks in my heart that weigh heavily on me. See the places where I carry grief. Hear my cries in the garden in the middle of the night and meet me here. Be my comfort. Be my sun after the night. Amen.

Gracious God, the words, “prone to leave the God I love” crack my heart in two. For try as I might, the truth of my life is clear. I will leave. I will deny. I will fall asleep. I will run and hide. Forgive me for leaving when love is so close. Forgive me for allowing fear to win. Forgive this wandering heart of mine for wandering away. Bring me back. Amen.

Holy God, not a day passes when I do not wish to know you better. Not a day passes when I do not wish to catch a glimpse of you in my midst. Like the desert longs for water, so I long for you. So today I pray: rain down on me. Rain down on me with streams of mercy. Wash not only my feet, but my head and my hands as well. Amen.

Jesus of Nazareth, we live in a world that has declared “no religion at the dinner table.” In that same spirit of compartmentalization, I am guilty of keeping my faith tucked away, a private devotion for quiet moments. That is not the way I want to live. This love was never meant to be quiet. This love was meant to be told, celebrated, shared, and spread. So when the c**k crows in my own life, let me speak with conviction. Amen.

God of the holy parade, many faithful folks have followed in your footsteps over the years—marching for justice and peace. When your holy parade comes my way, give me the courage to join the fold. Do not let me stand along the wall, a quiet bystander. Instead, spark courage in my heart to pick up a palm branch and to join the song. With an eager heart I pray, amen.

Palm Sunday God, where do I begin? This world needs so much saving. Save us from our greed, from our addiction to violence. Save us from the trap of a single story, and the arrogance to assume we always know best. Save us from hatred and vitriol. Save the waters and the air from our pollution. Save our hearts from complacency and apathy. Save us. Save me. Hosanna! Amen.

God of Grace, I am quite the work in progress. Why is it often easier to forgive someone else than it is to forgive myself? I can be quick to offer grace to my neighbor while doling out harsh words to myself. Allow me to grant myself the same grace and patience that I would grant my neighbor. May that unfurling grace be a reminder that we are called to love our neighbors as ourselves. With growing pains and constant hope I pray. Amen.

God of Grace, there is no limit to your kindness. No matter how many times I lose my way or fall short, you are always running to meet me with open arms. I cannot shake your mercy. I cannot lose your love. You are always there for me. Teach me how to love people like that. Teach me how to be persistent in mercy, resilient in love, and overflowing with grace. I want to be more like you. Amen.

Holy Teacher, like the eager kid in class, I want to raise my hand and ask you a million questions. I want to sit at your feet and listen to you describe the ways of the world, the ways of love, the ways of grace. What a comfort it is to know that I am free to learn and grow with you. What a comfort it is to know that you are always teaching and always guiding, which means you don’t expect me to be perfect already. Thank you for the room to grow. I hope to take up all of it! Amen.
