Prayers 29th January 2025,




 

Rise within me like the star 

And make me restless

Till I journey on

To seek my peace in you

 

A candle is lit.

 

Song “The love of God comes close” https://youtu.be/v-7BraZNS8Y?feature=shared

 

I light a candle for light, sending

prayers high into the inky heavens and

dreams deep into our human soul.

 

We light a candle for light. May it light our way.

 

We say the Lord’s Prayer in our own language

 

Psalm 76

 

You caused judgment to be heard from heaven;
The earth feared and was still
When God arose to judgment,
To save all the humble of the earth.

 

We pray for people and situations that are on our hearts today...For the peace process in Gaza, for Ukraine. For Russia, Lebanon, Syria, Afghanistan, Iran, Sudan, for the US, for Israel. For the over a million refugees worldwide, For people who are homeless, hungry, persecuted, For those who fight for the earth and for justice for its people, May we not fail you though we face great dangers. Give us your peace, wisdom and strength. Amen   

When the star in the sky has gone

And the wise men have gone back to their homes

The real work of Christmas begins

To find the lost, heal the broken, feed the hungry and release the prisoner. Amen
