PRAISE AND GLORY: PRAYERS OF PRAISE ENGAGING THE UNITED CHURCH OF CHRIST
DAY 39 - FRIDAY
Blessing and honor, glory and power be unto God. Amen.
God of Jesus Christ, and God
of all Glory,
our hearts overflow with
praise and we bless your name
as we consider your sovereign
action.
You have created a universe
of such vastness and complexity
that we cannot plumb the
mystery of all we see
or imagine all that lies
beyond the reach of our senses.
You feed us, and all other
creatures,
from the abundance of your
generosity.
You water the earth with rain
and snow.
You preserve life.
By your own choice, you came
among us, in Christ Jesus,
serving in humility, enduring
death, and defeating all powers.
You invite us to intimacy and
adopt us as your children.
You forgive all of our sins.
You instruct us in truth.
You enable us to enter deep
communion
with others whom You have
raised to new life.
You give us spiritual gifts
to strengthen each other.
You comfort and encourage us,
and instill hope for eternal
communion with You.
We praise You with
exuberance,
You whose action has shaped
and given meaning to our lives.
We honor your name by our
worship and obedience. Amen.
