Holy Father, remove all the sin that binds and oppresses us: anger, disgust, envy, hatred, lust, pride, and greed, the root of all evil. And cleanse our hearts of all unrighteousness. Create in us a clean heart, O Lord, and renew in us a sincere and willing spirit. Teach us your ways, and give us grace so that we may walk within them until the end of our days. Amen.

“Purify me from my sins, and I will be clean; wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.” (Psalm 51:7, NLT)
Today I am joining … Still Saturday and Sunday Stillness and Spiritual Sundays and Sacro Speco and Scripture & A Snapshot .
Beautiful prayer Joanne; I love the thought of renewal as we go into spring! ♥ Blessings and love for your Sunday!♥ Denise
The coming change of seasons surely prompts us to think of renewal. Although I am realizing after the winter we have had, it is begging us to think of it 🙂 Blessings!
Amen and amen!! Lovely post, Joanne!
Thanks so much, Holly. Your profile picture alone speaks of joy & encouragement. I love seeing your little “square”!
Oh, amen to this. Pure, clean, and white. Yes, please.
So grateful this is what He delights to do for us. Blessings!
Yes, a clean and pure heart is truly a good thing. And the photo. This is great!
Thank you!
What a beautiful prayer and striking image for it! Thank you so much for linking up with Sacro Speco! I needed this reminder–spring is coming! Blessings to you, today.
