PRAYER
Majestic God, we've benefited from the witness of those who have gone before us. Thank you for their testimonies confirming your activity. Forgive us for our eagerness to embrace crafty stories which we mistakenly believe will somehow benefit us. Help me to stay focused on the witnessed truth and to pass that perspective on to others who need to hear the great thing you have done through Christ Jesus. I'm going to embrace my place in the community of Christian witnesses. 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 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.
