Children's Sabbath prayer
Josh wrote a prayer today for Children's Sabbath:
Dear Lord;
Thank you for everything you have given to us. You have helped us through thick and thin. You have been there in times of need when we don't know what to do or don't know where to go. You have put us on the right path and led us where we need to be.
We know we have not done your will, and we have broken your law. we know we have sinned, and we know that we wil sin again, but Lord we just ask for your forgiveness.
Lord, we thank you for the children -- for what they have given, for what they do for this church and for what they do in this world, but, Lord, there are children in the world who are hungry, thirsty, deprived of sleep and who do not even have access to education, so Lord we ask for you to watch over them. Lead us to help them.
Lord, we are thankful for everything that you have given to us, though sometimes we have taken your gifts for granted. We are thankful for Joe Hill, who has led us in preparing for this service, and who shares his gifts with the youth group.
Lord we ask that you wil help the family of Marilyn Holleron who passed away last week.
Lord, we ask that you help us in our every day lives, and whenever we are stuck between a rock and a hard place. Help us to make the right choice.
Let us never forget to pray as you son taught us to pray:
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day, our daily bread and forgive us our trespesses as we forgive those who tresspass against us and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever. Amen.
