Our minds are clouded
Our vision is blurred
Our hearing is dull . . .
We have lost our way.
Help us, Holy Spirit, to see clearly.
Unstop our ears and open our understanding.
The things of this world have distracted us.
Our pursuits have kept us from you.
We are lost and don't know it.
Give us more grace, Lord, to forsake everything
for the cause of Christ.
You are the pearl of great price. You are worth it.
We leave it all to follow You.
Therefore,
"Let us throw off everything that hinders,
and the sin that so easily entangles us,
and run with perserverance
the race marked out for us.
Let us fix our eyes on Jesus,
the author and perfecter of our faith . . ."
