Help us to promote good-will and friendliness throughout your church.
Help us to give of ourselves through the gifts and talents you have so freely
given us;
Help us to love and understand people of other faiths and nationalities.
Help us to be witnesses of your Son Jesus through daily living in our homes,
community and this world;
Help us as we support those in the missionary field both spiritually and
materially and help them know we care.
Help us understand one another as we work together, to put aside personal gain
and recognition, to put aside human jealousies that so often cause hurt and
misunderstanding,
Help us, through patience and through forgiveness, to always work together for
unity.
For all these things, dear heavenly Father, we ask your guidance and your
strength. Hear us now as in our hearts we thank you for those things and all our
many other blessings, through Jesus, your Son, the living Christ. Amen. |
