PRAISE AND GLORY: PRAYERS OF PRAISE ENGAGING THE UNITED CHURCH OF CHRIST
STATEMENT OF FAITH
DAY 34 - SATURDAY
God promises to all who trust in the gospel fullness
of grace.
O Generous One, You who give
constantly and deeply of yourself,
we rejoice in all that You
have done for us,
and delight in the many ways
that your generosity
has unfolded in our lives as
your people.
You have given us the grace
of your companion Spirit
who dwells within us,
imperceptible,
yet close as our own thought
or pulse or breath.
By your Spirit, we see
Christ’s glory,
are transformed in Christ’s
likeness and receive Christ’s mind
that enables us to live in
great freedom
and serve one another with
abundant joy.
You have given us many gifts
to nurture our life together,
so that our practice of faith
and love
become fuller expressions of
your presence within us,
and so our lives become more
firmly stabilized
against forces that would
push or lure us away from You.
You have called us and made
us your holy ones
by your own gracious choice.
We rejoice in You and worship
You only. Amen.
