Welcoming/Preparing to Meet with God | Arise Your Light Has Come! | Rev. Christine Dickerson |
Gracious God, we give thanks for your steadfast love and eternal presence. We are in awe of the many blessings you give to us. We feel blessed in the sure knowledge of eternal life. But, Lord, the world is so hard. We are laughed at, ignored, and judged. Sometimes we are fearful and forget that you are always with us. Forgive us our weakness, forgive our hearts that hide from the world. Help us, we pray, to stand firm in the light of your love. Give us strength and let us trust in you, for you are with us always. We pray in Christ’s name, Amen. |

Our Father who art in Heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory, forever. Amen. |
