Father,
In Your mercy, hear our prayer. Please help us to turn from anything that isn’t pleasing to You. Lead us to repent so that we can speak of Your unfailing love. Turn us aside from wrong-doing and thoughts that are selfish and sinful. Help us to turn away from anything, anyone, and anyplace that does not please You. Father, whatever it takes to put our hearts right with You, please cause it to happen. Remind us what happens when we are apart from You. Show us the impact of our sin to help us see things how You see them. Mostly, overwhelm us with Your love so that we can turn away from disobedience. Help us to listen to Your love, to hear Your warnings, and to turn away from all that can destroy us. Restore us and renew us. Great is Love and Your love casts out fear.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen
