Prayer for July 21-27, 2013
Sermon Text: Luke 10:38-42
That we will
commune with You and serve You without anxiety
O Christ Jesus, too many things distract us from attending to
You and learning from You. We become
“worried and upset” about many things – including many that are good, like
providing hospitality, caring for our families, and working for the well-being
of our communities.
Enable us to
discern between the times when You invite us to more direct communion with You,
and the times when we must diligently exert ourselves for completion of the
tasks to which You have called us, and for which You have equipped us.
Whether resting in
communion with You, or working in obedience to You, enable us to be free from
anxiety. Enable us to focus well so that
your presence and glory are always in sight, energizing love and obedience as
we wait and as we work. Amen.
