Prayer
of Invocation
(inspired by Psalm 32)
Our hearts are blessed as we gather before You
today, O Lord,
for you have given us freedom from all our
transgressions
and joy in exchange for heavy hearts.
You are the refuge we seek when we are troubled
and the courage we need when we venture into our
days.
Bless us today with Your steadfast love
as we declare our trust in You. Amen.
