Prayer for August 28-September 3, 2016
Sermon Text: Luke 14:1, 7-14
That we may be humble agents of
your healing love
God of compassion, we
rejoice in the healing works that You accomplished, through Jesus Christ, even
in the face of the silent resistance of those who could not acknowledge the
goodness of his action.
Enable our full commitment
to your agenda of forgiveness, healing, liberation and justice. Enable bold
action on our behalf.
Forgive us when we are
hard-hearted toward those who need a healing touch. Forgive us when we will not
acknowledge holy works that fall outside the narrow boundaries of our
expectations.
Do not let us get caught up
in games of power and prestige, but enable us to respond to You, and to our
many neighbors, with humility and love. Amen.
