A Prayer for Sunday, May 4, 2014

Third Sunday of Easter

O God,

We praise you today
because you raised
your Son Jesus Christ
from the dead
and
because, being raised,
he is here
with us.

We praise you today
because in your Son Jesus Christ
you will raise us
to new life
and
because even now
you are
raising us
to new life.

Let our praise of you
lead us to reach out
and touch
other lives
with the new life
that is ours
in your Son Jesus Christ
that they might also
know you in the new life
that comes through
knowing him
in the power of
his resurrection.

Amen.
