Prayer of Petition
(inspired by Colossians 1: 1-14)

Our hope is in you, Lord,
our hearts belong to heaven.
Our hope comes from the gospel,
the word of the truth
that you brought to us.
May it bear abundant fruit
in our lives.
Let the whole world
be filled with your hope!
As we grow in faith,
help us truly comprehend your grace, O God;
help us understand this amazing grace,
as we seek to lead lives worthy of you, O Lord.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
