A Prayer for Saturday, April 30, 2016

Thirty-Fifth Day of Easter

O God,

Raise us up so we can see past our abilities.

Let us recognize, embrace, and use our abilities. Give us enough confidence in what we can do that we do it. Don’t let us do less than we are able to do. Help us live up to our full potential.

But also help us look past what we are able to do so we keep our eyes on what you can do. Protect us from the foolishness of trusting in ourselves too much. Protect us from the frustration of thinking that it all depends on us. Help us trust in you to accomplish what only you can accomplish, and to do more through us than we are able to do on our own.

Amen.
