Our heavenly Father,
do no let us bury ourselves
do no let us bury ourselves
into the bunkers of this-is-how-it-always-has-been.
Father, give us courage to look for reformation
Father, give us courage to look for reformation
when we’ve become too set in our ways.
Do not let us be too afraid of change.
Father, please give us courage and faith
Do not let us be too afraid of change.
Father, please give us courage and faith
to give room for your Spirit in our lives,
in the lives of our families and, ultimately, in the life of our Church.
And as you do that, please fill us with your love and joy,
so that we could be the salt of the Earth and the light of the World.
in the lives of our families and, ultimately, in the life of our Church.
And as you do that, please fill us with your love and joy,
so that we could be the salt of the Earth and the light of the World.
In the name of your Son,
our loving Saviour,
Amen.
our loving Saviour,
Amen.
