Prayer for April 2-8, 2017 
Sermon Text: Ezekiel 37:1-14

That your Spirit may come upon us when we are dispirited
     God of life, we rejoice that You created us. We rejoice that you are able to generate life where none exists.
     Sometimes, when we look at our lives in despair, we see nothing but heaps of bones that are as dry as dust. We are without vitality. Imagination and hope have dried up. There is no future.
     You are able to take even these guttering sparks of life and generate newness. You are able to restore vitality to the lifeless. You are able to generate joy in the despairing. You are able to instill new vision in those lacking insight. You are able to impart your Spirit to the dispirited. You are able to make your sovereignty known where it seems that chaos and death now reign. 
     You! You! You! You are able! We rejoice in what You have done and will do in our midst. Amen.
