Loving God and Father
Help us to be the people of the Kingdom
Committed to your story and and what it entails
Giving it authority in our lives
Help us to grasp
the intricacies of your grace
Help us to think well, live well
Form our desires to be from you
Let us recognize our identity
We are the church
We are chosen to be a light
We are your disciples
We are committed to the mission of the Church
Your plan for us is scary
Sometimes we pretend we don’t really know what to do
Sometimes we ignore it completely
Forgive us when we turn in the other direction
Give us strength to be your disciples
Give us strength to be your representatives
Give us wisdom to know the direction we are heading
Give us wisdom to know when we are standing still
Continue to lead us
Amen.
