Some of us

A couple of folks asked for a copy of the bidding prayer I wrote for worship this weekend. Here ya go!

Some of us are worried… we need your promises
Some of us are busy… we need your peace
Some of us are tired… we need your rest
Some of us are distracted… we need your vision
Some of us are broken… we need your healing
Some of us are stuck… we need your way out
Some of us are lonely… we need your love

Some of us are joyful… we give you praise
Some of us are thankful… we give you honor
Some of us are glad… we give you glory
Some of us are relieved… we give you blessing


All of us are yours… we give you ourselves

Dear brohter,

I think you have started your book with this prayer. Please keep writing and publish it. I can't wait to pray more of your prayers. I will be praying this prayer.

Love you,
