Liturgy from Last Sunday

I preached last Sunday at my church and led worship. I used the lectionary readings as the basis of the worship. The following Call to Worship is based on Psalm 36:5-10.

Call to Worship:

Leader: The steadfast love of our Lord extends to the heavens and his faithfulness to the clouds. His righteousness is like mighty mountains.
All: We come this morning to worship our God.
Leader: The steadfast love of our God creates a sanctuary in which we may take refuge, under the shadow of His wings.
All: We come this morning with gratitude for God’s abundant blessings of salvation and grace.
Leader: The steadfast love of our Lord is a fountain of life; in his light we see light.
All: We come this morning to worship our God with gratitude and praise.

The collect is written using the themes of the sermon, which included the idea that we should be expecting God to do great things -- we can trust him to have the ability, to love us, and to keep his promises. Are we expecting?

Collect

Loving and sustaining God, who walks in this room with us, who works in our hearts to transforms us, be present among us. Create in us an awareness of your almighty nature, your unending love and your never-failing faith in us, so that we may wait and watch expectantly, knowing that with you, nothing is impossible. Move us to action, so that we may become witnesses of the miraculous, through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Note: The collect was written in a modified version of the traditional form for the prayer.
