Daily Prayer


In the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, Amen.


Loving Father, I gather in Your presence.

I invite stillness into my heart.

May I breathe in Your peace and breathe out all stress and worry.

Holy Spirit, speak to me through this time in prayer so that the ear of my heart may understand God’s will.

Cherish and Challenge:

Cherish: Reflect on a time when you were injured or very unwell. Remember the healthcare you received.

Challenge: What gifts and talents has God given me? What purpose do they have? How can I use them as tools for building a better world?


Creator God,

Life is your gift to me. You invite me to share the gift of my life in service to others. Be with me as I choose each day to show your Presence in our world. Please give me the courage and generosity to respond to your love, to your call.

I give thanks to you for the gifts you have given me -my life, my family, my friends and my talents. All that I have comes from you. Help me to remember this and rejoice in your goodness.

Walk with me, my God. Help me on my spiritual journey, so that I may constantly renew my relationship with you.

Renew in me your Spirit. Give me the strength and courage to become a better follower of Jesus, to be a disciple. Help me hear the call to “Come, Follow Me.”

We pray this in the name of love, Jesus Christ,

Amen
