This Good Friday, I'm reflecting on three years of writing for Woman 2 Woman Ministries. I've always had the Friday spot, and I've had the honor of writing three previous Good Friday posts. I'm linking them below so you can have an extended time of reflection this Good Friday.
First, here is a new prayer for Good Friday 2021.
Father God,
Thank you for sustaining us
through a most difficult year.
Last Easter is when everything changed
yet you have held us
in the palm of your hand
before, during and after
such a hard year.
We bless your name
for giving us life and truth
and being our waymaker
where it seemed like there was no way.
Jesus, your sacrifice
on Good Friday on our behalf
seems even sweeter today
than in years past
knowing you died for the countless sins
committed in our world
in the past twelve months.
Oh Lord, we come before you
so sorry for the ways we have sinned
against you and others.
This Good Friday, we reflect
on our sinful natures
that only your sacrifice
can make as white as now.
Holy Spirit, may you renew
the fruits of the spirit in us
this Easter weekend
helping us bear them
more fruitfully than ever.
May our joy ever increase
our peace expand
and our love extend
further and wider
than ever before
with your gracious help.
May you lead us into new truths
kept timeless in your holy word
yet new to us as we grow
more in Christlikeness this year.
We pray these things
in Jesus' name, Amen.
