Prayer for June 8-14, 2014 
Sermon Texts: Acts 2:1-21; John 20:19-23

That we may live as your free and energetic witnesses
     God, our Creator and Redeemer, we rejoice in the gift of your Spirit that You have given so generously to all who follow Jesus.  We rejoice when it is given in quiet moments as Christ reveals himself alive and present with us.  We rejoice, also, in the dramatic moments that amaze with sound and signs that baffle us even as they energize us.
     Since You have given your Spirit so freely and fully, we want to live as your free and energetic witnesses and servants in the world.

     Give us understanding of what You are doing among us.  Enable us to interpret our experience in the light of the scriptures that You have inspired.  Unleash our tongues so that we may declare your wonders, so that others may perceive your glory, turn to You, receive your promises, and participate in the abundant life of salvation.  Amen.
