Papa God, it is only through your grace and mercy that we have survived to this day, and for this we thank you. Remove from our lives O God, anything that is contrary to your Spirit, as we strive to walk the path to which you have called us. Purify our hearts today Father, that we will neither contribute to the wickedness of this world, nor lead astray any of our brothers and sisters. Be that hedge of protection around our homes, our workplaces, our families, friends, and coworkers too, that our days will be spent in your perfect peace.
