5/14/2022 0 Comments Prayers of the People, E5CGlory to you, God!
Blessing and glory and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our God forever and ever! Amen! Hear our prayers, O God: for the lonely and the grieving, for the imprisoned and marginalized, for those in pain and those who hunger, for the brave embattled and the terrorized. Help us to demonstrate your love for them in all we say and do. Hear our prayers, O God: for those who stand firm for freedom and those who threaten it, for those who are oppressed and those who are the oppressors, for those who are targeted and for those who do not understand their own hatred, prejudice, and privilege. Help us to demonstrate your justice in all we say and do. Hear our prayers, O God: for we who are them -- whose brokenness is evident and whose contributions to anger and vitriol draw dividing lines, making enemies of friends and foes of family. Transform out hearts. Make us instruments of peace, O God, and teach us true kindness, so that all who seek you may find you in us.
