Prayer 4018-- beginning the 12th year of the Mutual Prayer Circle



inspired by Psalm 26 from this morning's Daily Office

Sheltering God, Companion in Love,
we praise you and raise our hearts in offering:
center us in your mercy and grace, we pray.

May our actions as your children ever honor your holy name.
May we cling fast to your law of love,
making no compromise with the deceitful,
nor align ourselves with the wicked,
the plotters of evil or the givers of bribes.

Instead, may we walk each step
in paths of righteousness and humility,
that we may be worthy to stand before you
with integrity and peace in our hearts,
united by your love and grace.

May we embody wisdom, shalom, and lovingkindness,
making our lives a celebration and testimony
of the beauty of your word and statutes.

Draw all who wander or search
into the warmth of your embrace, O Most High,
and place the shield of your mercy 
over those for whom we pray.

Amen.
