A Prayer for Today: Almighty and everlasting God, who is always more ready to hear than we are to pray, and gives more than either we desire or deserve: Pour down upon us the abundance of your mercy; forgiving us those things of which our conscience is afraid, and giving us those good things which we are not worthy to ask, but through the merits and mediation of Jesus Christ, your Son, our Lord. Amen.
