PRAYER
Gracious Lord, thank you for keeping the relationship going—even as we fail to live up to your expectations. Thank you for sending Jesus to make it all right. Thank you for sending the Holy Spirit to empower us to live up to our calling. Might he help me in my role as a minister of the new covenant. I'm going to faithfully serve you and share the gospel with all who need to know about your faithfulness. Amen.
Our Father in Heaven,
we hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening in heaven.
Give us enough food for today.
Forgive us our wrongdoing,
and we’ll forgive those who have wronged us.
Shield us from the trials and temptations that come our way.
Lastly, we pray that you will protect us from all forms of evil. Amen.
