Prayers 16th February 2021, Shrove Tuesday,



God our creator who goes before us

You draw us forward in faith

Like a pillar of fire across deserts 

A rock of assurance

As we journey 

Speak to us with your words of comfort and wisdom.

Prayer of confession

God of love and forgiveness

Save us by your tenderness

From each deed that is destructive

From each act that grieves you

From each thought that is careless

From each idea that is unloving

From each word that hurts.

Help us to face up to your call on our lives, by creating love and 

goodness, community, society where it has been broken. In Jesus Name, Amen.

 

The Lords Prayer in our own language

 

Ephesians 4v20

 

 20 But you did not learn Christ in this way, 21 if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught in Him, just as truth is in Jesus, 22 that, in reference to your former way of life, you are to rid yourselves of the old self, which is being corrupted in accordance with the lusts of deceit, 23 and that you are to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, 24 and to put on the new self, which in the likeness of God has been created in righteousness and holiness of the truth.

Our Prayers for our world, others and ourselves.

May God’s hand be upon us, angels protect us and the Holy Spirit work in and around us. Amen 

 

Blessing

 

Loving God help us to follow you

Into a place of quietness,

Where we may face beasts and wilderness

But we will know the presence of angels 

Even in the desert times. Amen.
