Prayers: Date Unknown

We thank You for the glory of Your creation: the earth, the animals, plants, and trees. Help us always to remember that  You have made it and called it "good." Also, remind us that we live as part of Your creation and must care for it always to glorify Your work.

We thank You for our families and friends and for this church community. The love and support we receive from these important people in our lives provides for us a small reminder and inkling of the loveYou have for us--a love so great we can barely begin to understand and accept it as displayed through the sacrifice of Your only Son for our sake. We ask that You help us always to remember the love You have for us and for all Your people, and encourage us daily to look on each other with eyes that see the soul that You love in every person we encounter.

We thank You for the blessing of capable bodies and sound minds that allow us to do Your work and know Your will. We ask that You provide comfort and support to those suffering illness and infirmity of body or mind, guiding the hands and hearts of those that care for them.

We thank You for all Your gifts, Lord, and recognize you as the True Source of all we have. 

All this we pray in the name of Your Son, our Lord, Jesus Christ.

Amen.
