Prayers 30th/31st July 2021,



Spirit of God

You are the breath of creation

The wind of change

Speak through my heart, my mind, my actions

 

Song “Peace like a river”

Forgive me my closed mind

And break down the barricades of my heart

So I can embrace new ways of being

 

We say the Lord’s Prayer in our own language

 

Reading Psalm 40

Do not withhold your mercy from me, Lord;
    may your love and faithfulness always protect me.
12 For troubles without number surround me;
    my sins have overtaken me, and I cannot see.
They are more than the hairs of my head,
    and my heart fails within me.
13 Be pleased to save me, Lord;
    come quickly, Lord, to help me.

 

We pray for all those we know who need our help and prayers who we carry in our hearts today. For Hong Kong, Israel, Palestine, Indonesia, India, Brazil, Russia, Ukraine, Yemen, Myanmar, the Rohingyas, the Uyghurs, Nigeria, Belarus, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Syria, Iran, the US, Afghanistan, our own country, doctors and nurses, carers, teachers, those confronting injustice, and pressing issues of climate change, for the many refugees, our families and friends and ourselves…Spirit of the Living God present with us now enter our bodies, minds and spirits and heal us of all that harms us. Let your angels be beside us at this time. In Jesus Name we pray.

 

This is the day that God has made

We will rejoice and be glad in it

We will not offer to God

Offerings that cost us nothing

We will go in Peace

To love and serve the Lord

Amen
