Prayer: John Chrysostom

O Lord, I am not worthy that you should come into my soul, but I am glad that you have come to me because in your loving kindness you desire to dwell in me. You ask me to open the door of my soul, which you alone have created, so that you may enter into it with your loving kindness and dispel the darkness of my mind. I believe that you will do this, for you did not turn away Mary Magdalene when she approached you in tears. Neither did you withhold forgiveness from the tax collector who repented of his sins, of from the good thief who asked to be received into your kingdom. Indeed, you are numbered as your friends all who came to you with repentant hearts.
