God of openness and new life, in this Easter time, remove me from the tombs of doubt and despair, turn me from dead ends and shattered dreams, and lead me to new hope and a bright tomorrow.

Walk with me down uncharted roads and ordinary paths, always leading me to a deeper trust and more faithful service.

I open my heart to your Easter Joy. Amen.

From Openings – A Daybook of Saints, Psalms and Prayer by Larry J. Peacock, Executive Director of Rolling Ridge
