Prayer
(inspired by Luke 11:
5-13 and Colossians 4: 1-5)
O God, our Master in heaven,
make
us fair and just in our dealings with others;
keep
us persistent in prayer for them,
alert
to their needs,
and
constantly thankful;
open
doors for us to proclaim the message about the secret of Christ;
help
us to speak as we should, to make it clear.
Keep
us wise in the way we act towards those who do not believe,
help
us always to make good use of every opportunity we have;
let
our conversation be attractive and inspiring,
and
teach us how to give the right answer to everyone,
through
Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
