St. Nicolai Notes

Prayer for June 13-19, 2021
Sermon Text: Mark 4:26-34

That we may share, by acts of generosity, the shelter and security that God's reign makes possible

Jesus, we rejoice in You! We rejoice that the fullness of God dwelt in You, and that You have revealed God to us through your instruction, through acts of compassion and mercy, and through your suffering, death, and resurrection.

We thank You for the fruit of faith and good works You have cultivated in the lives of others who, then, touched our lives with your love.

We trust You, even though the seed You scattered during your ministry has taken root in our lives and grown in ways that we cannot fully understand or control.

We know, Christ Jesus, that God reigns through You. We know that we cannot create or control the reign of God. Enable us to comprehend what You are doing among us. Enable us to share, by acts of generosity, the shelter and security that God's reign makes possible.

Reign in our lives today! Amen.
