Prayer for November 11-17, 2012
Sermon Text: Ruth 3:1-5; 4:13-17
That we may bear
your promise to many neighbors
Generous God, the wise ways by which You direct us are often
surprising to us. The means by which You
provide for us are marvelous and unexpected.
When our resources seem inadequate, You provide more than enough.
You take away our
loneliness by providing family and friends who remind us of your presence. You take away our bitterness by bringing new
life among us. You elicit our praise by
redeeming and sustaining our lives.
God, we rejoice in
You. We rejoice that in some measure our
lives are a sign of your love and your faithfulness. We rejoice that by your wisdom and
creativity, You are able to bring your promises to fulfillment in and through
us.
May we be bearers
of your promise to many of our neighbors.
Amen.
