Prayers in Worship

I take notes during the sermon. I do it because it keeps me focused.  I recommend it.  Sometimes I write a small prayer at the end.  Here are a few:

September 21

O God, may we be ever faithful and loyal stewards of what you have given to us. Grant us the grace of your forgiveness for the times we fail. Amen.

October 5

O God, when life seems to be too heavy, remind us that a little bit of faith invites change, an there is light and hope to come. Amen.

October 12

O God, help us to see you in our lives every day. Lead us to offer gratitude and to seek forgiveness. Enable us to accept forgiveness and do better tomorrow, Amen.
