Saturday Synaxis
See, Lord, an empty vessel that needs to be filled. My
Lord, fill it. I am weak in the faith; strengthen me. I am cold in love; warm
me and make me fervent so that my love may go out to my neighbor. I do not have
a strong and firm faith; at times I doubt and am unable to trust you
altogether. O Lord, help me. Strengthen my faith and trust in you. In you I
have sealed all the treasures I have. I am poor; you are rich and came to be
merciful to the poor. I am a sinner; you are upright. With me there is an
abundance of sin; in you is the fullness of righteousness. Therefore, I will
remain with you. Amen.
- Martin Luther
