Spirit of God
You are the breath of creation
The wind of change
Speak through my heart, my mind, my actions
Song “The Lord is my salvation”
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 45
My heart is moved with a good theme;
I address my verses to the ruler;
My tongue is the pen of a ready writer.
2 You are the most beautiful of humankind;
Grace is poured upon Your lips;
Therefore God has blessed You forever.
We pray for all those we know who need our help and prayers who we carry in our hearts today: for the families of those who died today trying to reach the UK, fleeing fires or flooding, for Ukraine and Russian people, Palestine and Israel, Sudan, Yemen, Hong Kong, China, Syria, Thailand, our own country, for those confronting injustice, and pressing issues of climate change, for those who are hungry, distraught, for the many refugees throughout the world, for those on strike, for the homeless, 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 “Nothing to fear”
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
