Daily Prayer
In the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, Amen.
Loving Father, I gather in Your presence.
I invite stillness into my heart.
May I breathe in Your peace and breathe out all stress and worry.
Holy Spirit, speak to me through this time in prayer so that the ear of my heart may understand God’s will.

Cherish and Challenge:
Cherish: Reflect on a time when you received forgiveness from someone? How did it feel?
Challenge: What burden, problem, worry or hurt do you want to give to Jesus?
God of Calvary,
You carried the cross so that we did not have to. Remind me that your shoulders are broad and that because of Your love, you want to carry our burden. Help me to grow in trust, and to hand it over to you.
No problem is bigger than you. Jesus, you take over.
We pray this in the name of love, Jesus Christ,
Amen

If you are not sure about selecting objects from your own life that represent you, you can select someone else's life to complete the activity.
