“Put to death, therefore, whatever in you is earthly: fornication, impurity, passion, evil desire, and greed (which is idolatry).” Colossians 3:5

Dear Heavenly Father, Creator of all,

I praise You and I am in awe of Your wondrous creation.

You made a perfect world; we screwed it up. Jesus paid the price, and we know who wins in the end.

The evil one is rampant in this world. Ask Your people to step into the purpose that You designed them for. Grant them all the graces, wisdom, and courage to do so.

Grant that more and more don Your armor daily to fend off the increasing arrows of the evil one, who knows his time is becoming increasingly shorter and is therefore desperate to spread his lies and destruction.

Protect my family. Let their love for You be their shield. Let the love of Christ radiate brightly from them, blinding all evil. In Jesus’ name, amen.
