PRAYER
Hallelujah! We sing the songs of resurrection from the mountaintops. Now we continue to pray that your Good News will reach the ears of all whose hearts are hardened by doubts in this dark world. Risen Jesus, you are praying with us. By the Spirit we lay the lost before your throne. Our hope is in you, O Lord. Amen. (Daily Texts, Ground Up Grace edition)
