Prayer
(inspired by Matthew 17:1-8, Mark 9:2-9, Luke 9:28-36,
2 Peter 1:16-18)
Reveal your presence to us this day,
O God of light, love, and glory.
As you did to your servants at the foot of the mountain,
send your Spirit to show us your story.
May the brilliance of your face
illuminate this place
as we dare to proclaim your Word
and may we, your people, be never unable
to tell all of that we have heard.
O God of light, love, and glory.
