"When you pray you rise to meet in the air those who are praying at that very hour, and whom save in prayer you may not meet.   Kahlil Gibran

Jesus, help us to see that we are your love letters to a world desperate to be loved. We ask that you would show us that each one of our stories is valuable to your kingdom and that you want to use us to spread your love to the ends of the earth. You have written the gospel love story on the tablets of our heart and it’s a story that needs to be shared. We pray for the courage and conviction to share with others. Amen.

“Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. “ Colossians 3:12

 Heavenly Lord, We thank You most humbly for all the people that you have brought into our lives and pray that you will continue to guide each of us to find our place in joyful service. For thine is the Kingdom and the Power and the Glory Forever. Amen.

We thank you, O God, for blessing of friendship: for friends who love us, who share our sorrows, who laugh with us in celebration, who bear our pain, who need us as we need them, who weep as we weep, who hold us when words fail, and who give us the freedom to be ourselves. Bless our friends with health, wholeness, life, and love. AMEN

God of the prophets, God of Christ: we are reminded today that your blessings do not necessarily follow the logic of the world. We pray for a more just world. Help us to stand in solidarity with the oppressed and marginalized; show us your presence in the faces of those the world forgets. In a society divided so many labels we alone have created, remind us that we are created in your image, each of us a beautiful reflection of you, each of us your beloved child. AMEN

Dear Lord, A fresh new year is now underway. Let us be thankful for the blessings of the past year and to take stock of all our achievements. Keep us aware that New Year 2019 is another opportunity to start afresh, to start strong, to put on a new self, and yet another chance to do seek you in the busy moments of each day. Help us to see your handiwork in, among and around our daily moments and never tire of starting again. AMEN
