“This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.”
1 John 5:14
Ever-gracious Father, who…
- pours out abundant blessings on us (specify them)
- provides for our every need whether physical, emotional or spiritual
We give you thanks for…
- accepting us just as we are with all our faults and flaws
- sustaining us through these difficult times
- the love we experience from you, our family, our church family and others
- the opportunities we have to show love (agape) every day of our lives
Forgive us when we…
- allow things or people other than you to come first in our lives
- let you down in our thoughts, words or actions
- put ourselves first rather than considering others
- give into selfishness, greed and pride rather than showing the selflessness, generosity and humility you require
We ask, Almighty God, that you…
- have mercy on our world and bring an end to the pandemic
- help all those struggling to bring peace and justice to our world
- save us and restore us as individuals, families and communities in keeping with your will
For yours is the kingdom, the power and the glory forever,
Amen
