A Prayer for the Season of Lent

Today is the first day of Lent, a time (40 days) leading up to Easter where Christians over the ages have devoted special attention to examining their lives.

Psalm 139.23-24 seems to me to be a wonderful prayer for the start of this season:

23 Search me, O God, and know my heart!
Try me and know my thoughts!
24 And see if there be any grievous way in me,
and lead me in the way everlasting!

May we grow in the grace and the knowledge of our Savior Jesus Christ (2 Pet 3.18) in this Lent Season!
