A daily prayer from the New England Conference

You are welcome to use these in worship or in your own devotions.
Today's Prayer
"The Spirit of the Lord is on me," Jesus said as he proclaimed the year of the Lord's favor. All eyes were on Him as he spoke. Could they feel the tremble in Heaven as He spoke of the good news? Did they know for just a second the glory of the Lord before them? And us, Lord? Are we too blind and too hard hearted to recognize you among us? Or perhaps Lord, can it be that our feeble efforts to right the wrongs, to offer solace, and to love each other, bring the scripture to fulfilment and prove to us once and for all that you are indeed right here among us? May all of our hearts and all of our minds be filled with your presence and your Spirit, Lord. May all of us, be part of your good news story. Amen.
By Rev. Dr. Jacquelyn Brannen, Katahdin District SuperintendentBased on Luke 4:14-21
