The Table is Spread

Dear Lord,

On this Holy Thursday, we ask your forgiveness especially when we’ve acted like the disciples of old letting pride for placement and lust for power to slip into our lives. Forgive us when we’ve betrayed you or sold our faith for more or less than 30 pieces of silver.

Help us today to follow your example of humility and service. Help us to grow beyond people who demand much and give little.

Gather us at the table again. Empower us to live as people who serve, give and love. Guide us to be the kind of disciples who stay awake even in dark and troubling times. Strengthen us to be steadfast unmovable always abounding in your work because we know that our labor is never in vain.

In Jesus name, we chose the towel instead of the title.

Sting, What Sting?

Nourish us of God, with your presence and your word. Forgive us for wanting to spend more time texting, and tweeting then we desire to be with you. Help us to get to the place where we acknowledge both our sin and our arrogance in our views about each other and ourselves.

Empower us to overcome whatever challenges this new life we find in you. Encourage us to claim what you have promised us and forgive us of a past that falls short of your glory.

Send us now into this day to be your representative of good news. Sin, death and hell are overcome. O sin where is your sting, O death where is your grave. There is now no condemnation. Praise God, Praise God. Amen.

Loving You is Not Wrong!

O lord, our God, how excellent is your name in all the earth. Forgive us for coming too often with our petitions for our right now and tomorrow needs without proclaiming your great and mighty acts or thanking you for the joy of our salvation.

We rejoice this morning for your unfathomable amazing grace, unequaled peace and endless love. We love you and thank for loving us first/ Help us to make known today all the marvelous things you have done in us and in the lives of those we know and love.

We pray for the victims of earthquakes and tsunamis; gang violence and acts of hate; victims of AIDS and other diseases; and those who live in the gap between what is promised and what is delivered. Giver of every good and perfect gift, help us to share with the hungry and marginalized; help us to bless those who can't bless us back.

In Jesus name, Amen

Defeats Do Not Define Us

Early we seek your face this morning thankful for a moment of rest. Thank you for the restorative powers of sleep and the refreshment of rest. Thank you that both were apart of our nighttime hours.

Forgive us again for sins committed by thought word and deed. Help us to release those who have sinned against us through forgiveness.

In Jesus name, assist us in learning from our mistakes. We know its because of your love you chastise us. Thank God our defeats do not define us nor are we doomed to repeat a negative past. Amen.
