Reflect
In what ways are the prayers of the widow and the tax collector models for prayer? Are you able to identify with anyone in these parables? How would you describe your own prayer life?
Pray
Lord God have pity on me, a sinner! I offer you my humble heart and confess to you my shortcomings. Cleanse me of my sin and teach me to walk in the way of your truth. Thank you for your steadfast love and forgiveness. In your holy name, I pray. Amen.
