Prayers for March 3, 2021

O God who created us in your image, we are thankful for the blessings you have given us.  May we live each day as a gift, knowing that it is an opportunity to use them in your honor.  Allow our passions and talents to grow in ways that glorify you.  Let us know when sharing them will benefit others and build them up.  May we share what you have given us is support of those in need.  Allow us to be present and responsive to those around us so that we can, in doing that, share your love through our actions.  Give us the strength to meet the day ahead.  All this we ask in thanksgiving for all you give us.  Amen
