An Easter Prayer

An Easter season prayer from the American Bible Society:

Dear Lord, we come to You with grateful hearts overflowing appreciation for everything You have provided us. We are especially thankful for the precious gift of Your only begotten son, Jesus Christ. We ask that you look upon us, Oh Lord, and find us worthy. Just as the stone before Christ’s tomb was rolled away by Your command, we ask that You move all obstacles of sin and weakness from our path so that we may please you in all that we do. As we go from our homes this Easter, we pray that you are with us in our places of worship, as we give thanks and praises for Your eternal and abiding love.

These things we ask in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost.

Amen.
