O God of the heavenly
powers, who gives more than we desire or deserve; grace us with your Holy
Spirit as we pray on this blessed day. Your son Jesus prayed for his disciples
then and for us now. We are so grateful to know that we are loved so dearly by
you. May we rest for a moment and embrace, absorb, and bask in that love. May
your Holy water flow through our lives keeping us in the flow of your Spirit
always.
Gracious God,
Beautiful Light, with the whole host of heaven we declare your goodness! We
lean on your steadfast love as we plead: come and help us. We are scrambling
for peace but finding chaos, searching for blessing but overwhelmed by trouble.
We pray for those who are suffering today. For those who don’t know you, for
those who doubt you love them, and for those who know you but do not come to
worship you. Be with them in their journeys. Lead them to a closer relationship
with you and your healing presence. Interrupt our worries with a vision of
purpose and delight. Lead us to the waters of healing amidst the work of our
days, throughout our rest, and in our dreaming. Open our hearts to be reassured
of your presence among us and in each person we meet.
God of boundless
grace, you call us to drink freely of the well of life and to share the love of
your Holy being. May the glory of your love, shine forth from each one of us
out into a world in need. We ask these things in the precious name of Jesus
Christ, our Savior. Amen.
