Ever present God, there are so many times we pray because we need to remind ourselves that we are not alone.  This day when for so many Christians we hear the story of Thomas who needed to actually touch divinity, may we who at times feel so empty and isolated, not only feel your presence butContinue reading “Prayer for April 11, 2021”

O God who guides us, help us to feel your presence as we determine our path today.  As we find ourselves making decisions that affect others to measure them against the canon of love.  May we ask whether it builds people up, whether it feeds them literally or figuratively.  Let us recognize those times when not immediate decisionContinue reading “Prayer for April 10, 2021”

Compassionate God, as we become more and more free to gather in larger groups, help us to continue to care for others as we have during this pandemic.  There have been so many times that we have heard of people giving their time, talent and treasure to aid others, even strangers.  May we build upon that empathyContinue reading “Prayer for April 9, 2021”

Loving God, we tend to take on too many projects or put off those ones for which we are not passionate.  Help us to determine which ones need our attention and those for which we need to ask for help.  If there are things that will never be completed let us be comfortable enough to admit thatContinue reading “Prayer for April 8, 2021”

O Lord our God, help us recharge our batteries as we recover from the hard work of Holy Week.  Let us take the time to rest.  Allow us the freedom to say no when we need to, and to fully take the time off we have earned.  Help our families who support us to know that we loveContinue reading “Prayer for April 6, 2021”

Resurrected God, we thank you for the gift of forgiveness that your death and resurrection provides.  May we use that incredible gift to be blessings to those we meet.  Help us to be loving toward our neighbor.  May we use what we have to serve those in need.  Allow us to fully live into what it means to beContinue reading “Prayer for April 4, 2021”

O Lord our God, on this day each year we find ourselves in that lonely position of not knowing where you are.  It is the day of emptiness. Help us to know that you would never leave us and that you want us to be in relationship with you.  May we take this one day to feelContinue reading “Prayer for April 3, 2021”

Sacrificing God, we struggle to comprehend the full meaning of what we commemorate this day.  Giving your life to make us redeemable is beyond our understanding and far more than we deserve for breaking so many covenants with you.  Help us to recognize your sacrifice for us this day.  May we become more aware of the the timesContinue reading “April 2, 2021”

On this day that we celebrate April Fools and Maundy Thursday, may we remember the reality that giving of ourself to those who are needy, and to ask for help is who God wants us to be seems somehow foolish.  May we know that our understanding of the poor and foolish is not true to reality.Continue reading “Prayer for April 1, 2021”
