Sunday Prayer: Joy

Lead us to the water, O Spirit, calm in a pool or flowing in a river or pounding down a waterfall. Lead us to the water where we can bathe, splash, leap and laugh, rinse and relax, soak for hours, until violence is washed clean from our skin and defensiveness is eased from our tense… Read More

Saturday Prayer: Just around the corner

Just around the corner, Holy One, Coming soon. Before I know it, While I am longing, Wondering and wandering, While I am looking to your Promised One, I see peeps of sunshine, Ribbons of laughter, and streams of Joy!!! As the World waits, As my heart sings, Just around the corner, Holy One, There is… Read More

Friday Prayer: A Prayer for Our Bodies

Word Made Flesh, Today, we pray for our bodies: For our tired feet, Our aching knees, The hips we somehow threw out of joint in our sleep. For sore shoulders Twingey necks, And fingers too stiff to move comfortably. We pray for relief from headaches, From stuffed noses, From sore throats, From relentless nausea. We… Read More

Thursday Prayer

On a day when the UK is participating in a General Election, we focus on hope and channel the Song of Mary: Cast down the mighty O God, send the rich away empty handed, lift up the lowly, fill the hungry. May we choose wisely – choosing personal discomfort over austerity that afflicts those already… Read More

Sunday Prayer: Peace

In the fear of the LORD, we pray for a root — merely a root, buried deep — that we might hope for the blooming of peace. In the wonder of the LORD, we pray for a child — for every child among us — to tame the lions and asps within us to be… Read More

Saturday Prayer: Just a little light

Lord, I enjoy the yards full of lights, the choir rehearsing the songs of angels and shepherds. I love to celebrate a mother and child, an overfilled inn and a manger and… …a reindeer? I confess I get distracted by the trimmings and forget the Main Story of Christmas! So help me see your Light… Read More

Friday Prayer: Advent during The Holidays

God, ‘Tis the season for celebrations and joy, And for struggles and grief. ‘Tis the season for hurried scurrying And for expectant waiting. ‘Tis the season for doing all the things And for silent, holy nights. Holy One, we are in the Holiday Season, And we are trying to live into Advent. I suppose it… Read More

Thursday Prayer: Hope of the tree

A shoot shall come out from the stump of Jesse, and a branch shall grow out of his roots. Isaiah 11:1 “For there is hope for a tree,    if it is cut down, that it will sprout again,    and that its shoots will not cease” Job 14: 7 By the grace of God, may we… Read More

Wednesday Prayer

On this Advent Wednesday, after a couple of days being yakky sick, I sit in the warmth of my office, the minister of music is practicing something in the other end of the building, and the caramel tones of piano are wafting faintly through my door. I hear the voices of the treasurer, the administrator,… Read More

Tuesday Prayer

Many Christian denominations celebrate the season of Advent, which began on Sunday, Dec. 1. It is a season of expectation and waiting: expecting God to come into our lives anew, and waiting for that new birth, new life of God in us. For about ten years a group of Christians have also claimed the first… Read More
