"Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God."
Hebrews 12:2
"Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth."
Psalm 46
We serve a risen Saviour yet live as if in chains. Forgive us, Lord
that we are so hesitant to live the resurrection life. Forgive us that
we fail to show through word and action the truth that you loved us
into your kingdom through the glorious mystery of the Cross. Forgive
us that there is still fear in our lives that prevents us from
achieving our full potential. Draw us close. Open our eyes to the
glory of the risen Christ, our hearts to the wonder of the Cross and
our hands to the service of your kingdom where you have placed us.
That your name might be glorified through our lives.
AMEN
God of resurrection
of life and death
rebirth
All: Renew our hearts and minds
God of promise
of all beginnings
and all endings
All: Renew our hearts and minds
God of hope
of new growth
and harvest
All: Renew our hearts and minds
Your light is the only light we need
as we travel through life's mystery
Your word the only voice we hear
that still small voice that leads us
to the place where we should be
Your presence is the only company we need
as we walk this narrow road
Your fellowship the warmth we crave
to help us on our way
May the truth of Easter
The joy of Easter
And the blessings of Easter
Be with us this day and all days
AMEN
