Prayer for November 18-24, 2012
Sermon Text: 1 Samuel 1:4-2:10
That we may find
you faithful in our grief
Listening God, sometimes when life seems arrayed against us,
we are so troubled that all we are able to do is pour out the grief of our
hearts in prayer that is drenched with tears.
We turn to You with just a shred of hope. We pledge ourselves to You, pledge even the
gifts we seek from You, if You will answer our anguished cries with generosity.
Answering One, how
often we have found You faithful! You
have heard our cries. You have given
generous gifts. You have renewed our
spirit and filled us with your joy and peace.
You have enabled us to worship You with glad hearts.
Even when we keep
the vows we make to You, it is because You have given us the desire and the
discipline to do so. Your unmatched
faithfulness energizes our faithfulness.
May we trust and praise You without ceasing. Amen.
