Prayer for July 26-August 1, 2020
Sermon Text: Matthew 13:31-33, 44-52
That You will shape our lives for your pleasure
God of glory, we rejoice that in
Christ Jesus your reign has permeated our lives, and the entire world, in
unforeseen, generative ways, and that it is expanding into a commodious realm
of welcome and rest.
We
treasure your presence and reign and invest ourselves wholly in service to your
reconciling, renewing plan for all of creation. We withhold nothing from You.
You are worthy of the best that we have to offer, and we give it gladly.
Enable us to act wisely, and passionately, with all of the resources
that You have provided for following You in faithfulness. Shape our lives so
that we are preserved for your pleasure in the day when You set everything
right.
We
rejoice and praise You more boldly the more evident your reign becomes to us.
Amen.
Thoughts, and prayers from Pastor David Antieau at St. Nicolai United Church of Christ
