Spirit of God
You are the breath of creation
The wind of change
Speak through my heart, my mind, my actions
Song “In Christ Alone”
Loving God
Come into my confused and troubled life
And send your Spirit
To work in me
To realign me
So that I may know
You in my life
Your joy, your peace, your Shalom
We say the Lord’s Prayer in our own language
Reading Psalm 44
You are my King, God;
Command victories for Jacob.
5 Through You we will push back our adversaries;
Through Your name we will trample down those who rise up against us.
6 For I will not trust in my bow,
Nor will my sword save me.
7 But You have saved us from our adversaries,
And You have put to shame those who hate us.
8 In God we have boasted all day long,
And we will give thanks to Your name forever.
We pray for all those we know who need our help and prayers who we carry in our hearts today. For Afghanistan, especially the women, our burning world and those dealing with the fires, for politicians to act on climate change, for our own country, for those with Covid, for doctors and nurses, carers, teachers, those confronting injustice, for the many refugees, 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.
Song “Im leaning on you”
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
