Third Sunday of Lent, Collect (Children's Reboot)

God of love

in Jesus you were born, like us.

You grew from a baby to be a child.

You took all the time that

we will take to grow up.

We are glad you know what

it is like being a person.

Amen.

The Gunning Fog readability index suggests 4.3 years of formal education is required to understand this prayer on a first reading, the Common Worship prayer requires 31.6 years.

Here's the information on how this prayer is a reboot.

The Third Sunday of Lent Collection of 5 prayers is here.

You can also look at the full Index of Prayers.

The project runs from Advent 2012 to Advent 2013.

If you want to use the prayers, an acknowledgement of myself as author and, if there's space, the link to my blog would be much appreciated.
