God,
Please make me new again.
Remove from me all vestiges of sin.
Give me rebirth as a new creation.
Let me experience the life that is eternal and abundant right here and right now, available in a relationship with your son.
When my body will no longer support life, draw me close to you while I await my new body, one that I will enjoy in the fullness of time.
God,
Please make the world new again.
Remove from it all vestiges of sin.
Bring to fruition the seeds of peace, justice, healing and beauty that characterize your kingdom even now, as you fulfill the work you started in your son, which you sealed with his resurrection.
Fill me with your Holy Spirit so that the way I treat others might be a sign, a foretaste, and an instrument of your kingdom.
And then, when the time is right, I pray that I and those I love may walk together in resurrected bodies on the streets of that new city of Zion.
Amen.
