Prayers March 5th 2024,


God our creator who goes before us

You draw us forward in faith

Like a pillar of fire across desert wastes

A rock of assurance

As we journey 

Speak to us with your words of comfort and wisdom.

 

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.

 

We say the Lords Prayer in our own language

 

Psalm 92v12-15

 

The righteous person will flourish like the palm tree,
He will grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13 Planted in the house of the Lord,
They will flourish in the courtyards of our God.
14 They will still yield fruit in advanced age;
They will be full of sap and very green,
15 To declare that God is just;
They are my rock, and there is no malice in them.

 

We pray for the negotiations for peace in Gaza, for Israel, for peace in Ukraine, for Russia, for work to halt climate change, for the 100 million people who are displaced wandering around the globe looking for a new home and grieving the loss of their homeland, for the homeless, the hungry, the distressed.  May God’s hand be upon us in these difficult times, your angels protect us and the Holy Spirit work in and around us. Amen

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.
