Christ Jesus, you have overcome death. You touched the ear of the man who could not hear, saying "Ephphatha! Be opened!" When we do not see the direction any more, incline our hearts to your truth. It is your life that teaches us. Lead us to love as you have loved us, and rekindle in us the desire to come to you in the littlest of our brothers and sisters.

Risen Christ, humble presence walking alongside us, even if we do not recognize you, you are always there. And if you ask us: "What are you talking about? What is it that challenges you?" can we dare to tell you everything that preoccupies our heart? And the little path of our liberation opens up, for you welcome us as we are.

Eternal Wisdom, living Word, place in us the desire to listen to you, and instruct us in the ways of your love. We would like to seek you as soon as the day breaks; and it is in the face of Jesus, the Christ, that we recognize you. Bring us always closer to him, and renew the face of the earth!
