7/19/2024 0 Comments Prayers of the People, P+9BHoly Lord,
you are above all, and in all, and through you, all things exist that exist. Your faithfulness is beyond our human comprehension. Generation after generation, you keep covenant with us, and we are grateful! Hear our prayers, O God, for we who have failed to keep your commandments. Be present with us in our weakness, we pray. Strengthen us through humility and prayer. Teach us to listen to you and help us to understand your Word beyond the surface level reading of it. Inspire in us a deep love for our neighbor, our enemy, our very selves, so that when we love others accordingly, it is with compassion and kindness, with hope for their success, and with a passion for justice that equalizes the playing field for all of your children, everywhere. Focus our attention on the example you set for us in Jesus, who loved unconditionally, spoke truth to power, welcomed the marginalized, fed the hungry, brought healing to the infirm, forgave generously, championed the oppressed, and lifted the despairing out of the depths, that we might be the leaders you have called us to be.
