Prayer for May
12-18, 2013
Sermon Text: Acts 16:16-34
That we may live fully into the freedom and fullness
You intend for us
Liberating God, we rejoice
that You call your people to be agents of your freedom. We rejoice that your word and your power are
able to work through us in spite of our many limitations. We rejoice that You are at work to overcome
obstacles to the compassionate service of your people in the world.
Even in the face of strong resistance,
your word communicates your compassion effectively, and your power is able to
transform people, situations and systems.
Enable us to live fully into the freedom
and fullness that You intend for us.
Guide us to the people and places where your liberating word and power
are most desperately needed. Enable us
to bring your freedom even when we must face accusation and injury and know
more fully the cost of love.
We rejoice in You. We serve You with gladness. We celebrate your life-changing love and
power. Amen.
