Prayer for our ministry |
||
|
|
As a people of faith "empowered" by the Holy
Spirit, through our lives of faith we bring to all people the fruits of the
Holy Spirit as listed in Galatians 5:22-23. |
|
|
|
||
|
|
"...love, joy, peace, and self-control.” |
|
|
|

|
|
Prayer: Creator God,
Father-Son-Spirit, you remain with us and all believers to guide and
strengthen us. Be near now as we pray for the ministry you entrust to us here
at Wayne State College. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reflection #1: When we come face to face with the challenge of self-giving, when we are asked to go the extra mile of our time, to take the risk of reaching to another, to offer forgiveness to the heart that rejects us... Prayer: Spirit of God, fill us
with the energy of love. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reflection #2: When our world view is bleak, when we walk with sadness written on our soul, when we have days in which everything goes wrong... Prayer: Spirit of God, stir up the
energy of joy within us. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reflection #3: When anxiety and concern take over our spirit, when restlessness or boredom holds sway over us, when our world cries out with distress and turmoil... Prayer: Spirit of God, deepen in
us the tranquility of peace. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reflection #4: As our needs press on us, as impulses drive us into hasty actions, as the needs of others slow down our pace... Prayer: Spirit of God, quiet our
urgencies and soothe us with the energy of patience. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reflection #5: When someone needs a simple gesture of thoughtfulness, when a look of love is all another asks from us, when a good word could take the sting out of the gossip of foes... Prayer: Spirit of God, create in
us the energy of kindness. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reflection #6: When our personal hungers and fears cause us to shut out the needs of others, when we are tired of the cries of our brothers and sisters... Prayer: Spirit of God, remind us
of the abundance of your gifts and renew in us the energy of generosity. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reflection #7: In those difficult times when fear threatens to drown our trust in you, during those growthful life experiences when we are tempted to doubt all the ways we have know you to be faithfully present... Sprit of God, renew in us the energy of trusting your faithfulness to dispel our fears and doubts. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reflection #8: When harshness or abruptness dominates our moods, when we feel challenged by the power of another, whenever we use the things of this good earth... Prayer: Spirit of God, bless us
with the energy of gentleness. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reflection #9: As we walk on the edges of life and death, as we struggle with the disciplines of the spiritual journey, as we yearn to be faithful amid the many changes of our lives... Prayer: Spirit of God, move us
with the energy of self-control so that we
respond to your guidance. Amen. |
