Here’s an opening prayer based on Psalm 130 from Rev. Nancy J.
Opening Prayer
(based on Psalm 130)
Holy God, Creator of Life,
you call us out of our dark places,
you call us out of our dark places,
offering us the grace of new life.
When we see nothing but hopelessness,
When we see nothing but hopelessness,
you surprise us with the breath of your spirit.
Call us out of our complacency and routines,
set us free from our self-imposed bonds,
and fill us with your spirit of life, compassion, and peace,
In the name of Jesus, your anointed one, we pray. Amen.
Call us out of our complacency and routines,
set us free from our self-imposed bonds,
and fill us with your spirit of life, compassion, and peace,
In the name of Jesus, your anointed one, we pray. Amen.
