A Prayer for Monday, January 16, 2012

“They Worshiped Him, but Some Doubted”

O Lord, may our experience of you be as real to us as was that of those who were privileged to see you in your resurrected state.

O Lord, may our response to our experience of you be to worship you—to serve you by loving you with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength and to love our neighbors as we love ourselves.

O Lord, may our doubts that come to us even in the midst of our experience of you and of our worship of you serve in the long run to strengthen the real faith that we need in living these real lives in this real world.

Amen.

“Now the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had directed them. When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted.” (Matthew 28:16-17)
