Spirit of Christ, our ever-present counselor, reveal to us where we are yet wrongly attached to this world, that we might let go of the things to which we cling and journey with our brother, Jesus, who left the Father’s side for our sake but now lives forever in glory and great joy. Amen.
‘To another he said, “Follow me.” But he said, “Lord, first let me go and bury my father.” And Jesus said to him, “Let the dead bury their own dead, but as for you, go and proclaim the kingdom of God.”‘ – Luke 9:59-60
