Prayer for the Day
A prayer of adoration
O Lord Christ, Wisdom of God we praise you, Word everlasting we bless you, Light undying we glorify you, Fountain of mercy we adore you, Joy of the saints we worship you.
Prayer for the Day
A prayer of thanks that God walks with the outcast
God of the Outcast; God of the Disempowered:
Thank you that you walk with us as One who has been rejected, despised, mocked.
Help us to follow the story of your pathfinders long past: justice-seekers like the Primitive Methodists who opened wide doors to welcome all.
A prayer for wisdom
Gracious God, we look to you for wisdom, often we look in the wrong places, missing the opportunity to learn of you from others. Your word, as expressed in the Bible, can be difficult to interpret in this divisive world. Show us your way through those we encounter who exude your wisdom in their love for their neighbours, and who emanate your justice from the very depths of their souls. Teach us to engage with the needs of refugees, asylum seekers and immigrants, as all are our neighbours and all are precious people to you. In Jesus’ name we pray and for his sake, Amen.
