A prayer to remember...

God of mercy and compassion, you hold out to us the hand of your mercy to raise us up from the misery our selfish sinfulness has brought upon us and upon those whose lives we touch.  Teach us to weep where we have caused weeping, to mourn where we have caused mourning, and to lift up what we have brought low.  In hope and trust, we turn to you for healing, through Jesus Christ your Son, our Lord, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy spirit, one God for ever and ever.  Amen
