Prisoner and Prayer


Sin is the darkness that envelopes our souls.
It imprisons our whole being
that we are frozen to do good.
It gradually takes us afar,
so distant from the One who can set us free.
Sin makes our lives miserable,
with no joy, peace and love in our hearts.
It makes us restless, lonely in the darkness
with hearts crying for freedom and salvation.

Dearest Jesus, help us to desire
to seek and find You
that sin may not bind us.
Increase our hunger and thirst for You
so we may choose what is good and not evil.
Shield our ears from the taunting of the enemy.
Fortify our hearts that we may resist his temptations.
You are the Light who can free us from darkness.
Release us from this prison
and let Your divine unconditional love
conquer our whole being
that we may manifest You and not the Evil One
in every deed that we will do in our lives. Amen.
