Thank you for the day you have gifted me
I offer my praise and thanks to you
Open my heart and my mind
To your Spirit
And give me your presence
In my life today
Song “With all I am”
Loving God
I often get it wrong
Send your Spirit
To work in me
To realign me
So that I may know
Your joy, your peace, your shalom
We say the Lord’s Prayer in our own language
Acts 1
12 Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mountain called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, a Sabbath day’s journey away.13 When they had entered the city, they went up to the upstairs room where they were staying, that is, Peter, John, James, and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, Simon the Zealot, and Judas the son of James.14 All these were continually devoting themselves with one mind to prayer, along with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with His brothers.
We pray for all those we know who need our help and prayers ….and the many others we carry in our hearts.
For Ukraine, Russia, Syria, Afghanistan, Yemen, Myanmar, the Rohingyas, the Uighurs, Hong Kong, Belarus, Ethiopia, Chad, Nigeria, our own country, climate change, doctors and nurses, carers, teachers, those confronting injustice, 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. Amen

This is the day that God has made
I will rejoice and be glad in it
I will not offer to God
Offerings that cost me nothing
I will go in Peace
To love and serve the Lord
Amen
