A daily prayer from the New England Conference
Members of the New England Conference Extended Cabinet are sharing a daily prayer based on the Revised Common Lectionary for the week.
You are welcome to use these in worship or in your own devotions.
Today's Prayer
Bountiful God -
Your grace is immense. Your compassion is inexhaustible. Your love is boundless with power to mend and heal our brokenness. Forgive us when we do not believe it. Help us claim and believe in our belovedness. Because when we do not recognize it in us, we fail to see it in others. Repaying hate for hate.
Your love and Your grace are a gift to us. Your compassion is a gift to us. Your forgiveness is a gift to us. Forgive us when we think and act as if others need to think a certain way, or act a certain way, or believe a certain way, in order to be worthy of Your love. None of us are. Still, You love us, immeasurably.
God, help us never forget your bounty. Help us to devote our lives to do good, and give us the courage to live selfless and productive lives, and in so doing, may we usher Your mercy and renewal into Your world.
By Rev. Wanda Santos-Perez, Seacoast District Superintendent Inspired by Titus 3:1-14
