Lectionary Prayers: A prayer for Psalm 1



Loving God,
Tree of Life,
We are grateful for your revelation to us in Holy Scripture.
We are grateful to listen now in prayer.

silence

Spirit, we pray for those in our church family and those in our hearts.
In illness, we pray for healing and comfort and strength.

Spirit, we pray for peace in our world.
We pray for those in harm’s way.
We pray for those grieving and afraid in war.
We pray for our leaders - our government and our military.
In conflict, we pray for peace, clarity, and compassion.
Through anxiety, remind us to be centered in you.
For being rooted in you is to be grounded in steadfast love.

Jesus, we are thirsty. Remind us that you are our living water.
Remind us of that living water through the prayer you taught us to pray saying ...

Lord's prayer
