Fifth Sunday of Lent, Additional Collect (Redub)

Loving God,

you chose, in Jesus,

to live in and love our world.

By this we know your love

is as close as close can be.

When we think of how Jesus

was rejected, misunderstood

and judged help us understand

our human nature and your Godly love.

Amen.
