Litany of Joy
Deliver me, Jesus
From my need to be in control // From the distorted view of what will make me happy // From disappointment and discouragement in the weakness of others // From disappointment and discouragement in my own weakness // From letting the evil one control my reactions throughout my day // From the lie that You are far from me // From the moments when I place my identity in someone or something else // From my fear of discomfort and suffering // From the lie that I am not enough // From the lie that You are not enough and cannot fulfill the longings of my heart
Jesus, come be my joy.
In the times I am feeling the weight of the Cross // In times of confusion // When I am afraid // In the times I feel overwhelmed // In the times when I feel Your peace // In times of friendship and community // In times of misunderstanding and hurt // When I am jealous // When I am angry // When I want to give up // When I am fighting temptation // In times of planning and work // In times when I am tired // In times of doubt // When I cannot see the future ahead of me // At all times, seasons, and moments in my life
