I call on the clarity of God
To meet me in my confusion
I call on the mercy of God
To meet me in my brokenness
God in our meeting
God in our parting
Song “Let your living waters"
As I come before you
Bow down before you
May my prayers rise up
And your blessings rain down upon me
Come Holy Spirit, dry bones awaken
The Lord’s Prayer in our own language
Psalm 31
Love the Lord, all His godly ones!
The Lord watches over the faithful
But fully repays the one who acts arrogantly.
24 Be strong and let your heart take courage,
All you who wait for the Lord.
We pray for all those we carry in our hearts.
For the asylum seekers awaiting deportation, for Ukraine, Russia, Israel, Palestine, Yemen, Myanmar, the Rohingyas, the Uyghurs, Hong Kong, Belarus, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Syria, Iran, the US, our own country, doctors and nurses, carers, teachers, those confronting injustice, and pressing issues of climate change, 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.
Put fire in my heart
And sends me your Spirit
Renew my hopes and dreams
Remind me that a new way is always possible
In life, in death and beyond death
God is always with us.
There is always hope.
Amen.
