Weekly Prayer Life
I am communing with fire. Of myself, I am but straw but, O miracle, I feel myself suddenly blazing like Moses’ burning bush of old… You have given me your flesh as food. You who are a fire which consumes the unworthy, do not burn me, O my Creator, but rather slip into my members, into all my joints, into my loins and into my heart. Consume the thorns of all my sins, purify my soul, sanctify my heart, strengthen the tendons of my knees and my bones, illumine my five senses, and establish my wholly in your love.
Amen.
From Symeon Metaphrastes (900 – 987)
Please pray together with us this week for:
• Pray for this Sunday’s Worship Service as we conclude the “With God: Reimagining the Way you Relate to God” series. This week we will look at “For God or With God” as we examine Philippians 3:8-10. Pray that people will encounter Christ’s presence and his transformation.
• Pray for our Outreach Partners as they minister to the needs of the city under difficult circumstances.
• Pray for those in our community that are struggling in their relationships with family, spouses, partners or roommates. Pray that God would give them hope, strength and courage to take steps toward health.
