O God, we thank you for your Son Jesus, our good shepherd. Help us to hear his voice, and know him as he calls us by name, and to follow him wherever he leads.
Lead us away from temptation. Free us from selfishness and pride. Give us the honesty and humility to recognize our need for your grace and mercy. Forgive us our sins and make us ready to forgive others.
Help us, O God, to press on and to strain forward that we might know you more and more. Help us to take hold of the maturity and purpose you have in mind for us.
Through Christ, we pray. Amen.
