An example prayer
GREED · A PRAYER OF REPENTANCE
I come before Jesus, who went into the home of Zacchaeus, a man who lived clutching money, and made him open his hands to give.
I couldn't be thankful for what you've already given, and got caught wanting more.
Open my clenched hands and teach me the joy of giving.
Thank you that you do not turn away from those who return to you. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
