Lord Jesus Christ, king of Peace and Savior of the world, in this holy season of Lent we lift our hearts to You with repentance and hope
We confess that we have often strayed from Your way and loved the things of this world more than Your will
Forgive our sins and renew our hearts by the grace of Your Holy Spirit
Lord, we place before you our country, Lebanon, with all its wounds, struggles, and the suffering of its people
Look upon it with Your mercy and send upon it the peace that surpasses all understanding
Extinguish the fire of division and hostility, and plant in the hearts of its children the spirit of love and reconciliation
Make us instruments of your peace and lights in this land that You love
During this Lenten journey, teach us to fast from evil, to hunger for righteousness, and to thirst for Your Kingdom
May this season become a time of return to You, a time of healing for our hearts, and the beginning of a new peace in Lebanon
To You be glory and thanksgiving forever
.Amen
