Prayer, day 2444
Beloved Savior, we come before you
seeking your grace and compassion this day:
we long for the weight of your hand upon us
as we seek to live into your witness of reconciliation.
Awaken us to your presence within us, Lord Christ,
that we remember that in your incarnation,
you remind us of our true nature and work:
to heal the sick
to stand alongside the oppressed
to reconcile the lost
to honor the least of these
to walk humbly and ever closer with our God.
Blessed Jesus, you taught us to pray and to listen,
to embody wisdom, peace, and virtue,
breathing forgiveness and mercy
in the renewal of life, holiness, and hope for all:
Today, may we set our feet firmly in this pilgrim path.
Bless and strengthen us in determination, O Messiah,
as we seek to emobdy your light and truth,
and in your compassion pour out your comfort
upon those whose needs we bring before you.
Amen.
