A Prayer for Sunday, January 11, 2015

The Lord’s Day

O God,

Thank you for the privilege of gathering today as your baptized people.

Lead us to worship you today as those who have been baptized not only with water but also with the Holy Spirit.

Let our worship of you today help us to move farther down the path of knowing that we are baptized with your Spirit and of living in light of the fact that we are baptized with your Spirit.

We praise you for the comfort of your Spirit; help us to rest in that comfort.
We praise you for the challenge of your Spirit; help us to respond to that challenge.
We praise you for the empowerment of your Spirit; help us to draw on that empowerment.
We praise you for the instruction of your Spirit; help us to listen to that instruction.
We praise you for the leadership of your Spirit; help us to follow that leadership.
We praise you for the grace of your Spirit; help us to embody that grace.

Amen.
