A Prayer for Tuesday, April 14, 2015

Tenth Day of Easter

O God,

What a shame it would be if I had a billion dollars in my pocket but never put my hand in my pocket to make use of what was there! What a shame to have such resources with which to do so much good but never to take advantage of them!

Resurrection power is worth far more than a billion dollars; we can do more good through the power of the resurrection than we can with any other resource.

Forgive us for not taking full advantage of and making full use of the power of resurrection that is present in us through the resurrected Christ. Forgive us for not looking into our spirit to see what is there; forgive us for not turning it loose in our lives and in the world.

Help us to live with full awareness of the presence of the resurrected Christ in our lives; help us to live with full commitment to unleashing the reality of resurrection in the ways that we live—and especially in the ways that we love.

Amen.
