Prayer: Using Our Gifts; Empowering Others

Written by RENEW | Jan 21, 2019 11:00:05 AM

Lord God, we gather together in your name.
We acknowledge your loving presence among us.
We ask you to help us to recognize
the many gifts we have received from you.
We thank you, in particular,
for inviting us to serve you.
Guide us
as we seek to use our own gifts more fully
and to empower others to use theirs.
Be with us
as we deepen our understanding
of all that you call us to be.
We ask this through your Son, Jesus Christ,
who lives and reigns with you
and the Holy Spirit,
one God, forever and ever.
Amen.
