Prayer 1016

Detail from a window in the McCarthy Room at Eden Seminary.

Almighty God, we praise You, and give thanks for your steadfast love and mercy. Convert our hearts and minds to be reborn and renewed, O Lord, that we allow love to heal our wounds and fill us with compassion. Guide us in the way of discipleship, to live the true meaning of charity: to have hearts for others, and stand united in love. Draw us within your world-encompassing embrace, O Christ, that we may be converted in body and soul. O Holy One, may our prayers rise to You as incense; may our hearts overflow in wonder at your abounding grace. Send forth your Spirit and Word, O God,to enlighten us, and wrap in the mantle of your blessing those for whom we pray.

Amen.
