Dear Jesus -
Thank you that the Good News is Love.
We ask that you might show us our behaviors that are getting in the way of our loving people well.
What fears might we have of living into perfect love? Are we scared it might put us in places where we’re not comfortable? It might ask us to give of ourselves and our resources more generously. It might mean that things we believed made us special are no longer true.
Show us our fears, humble us that we might step into a life of love.
Lord, we ask that you put a Jesus in our life. Put someone in our life that models what it means to love others well.
Lord, we ask that we might be Jesus for someone else. Allow us to be a model of love for someone who needs to a model.
Thank you that it is simple news and that it is truly good.
We love you.
Amen.
Episode 20: Prayer for Contentment
May 23, 2022 • Kelley Weber
Dear God,
Allow us to trust our bodies that they will teach us how to recognize the clinging of our hearts and minds and hands to that which is not life giving to those things we should not worship.
Make clear to us the times when we live into the Grace that is offered us in every moment.
Help us not just to pay attention but to recognize and shift our behavior so that we may live simply, with contentment.
And allow our longing to be only for you.
Amen
Episode 19: Prayer for the Exhausted
May 9, 2022 • Kelley Weber
God of all love and mercy - rain your grace down on us this day. Cover us with healing waters that wash away the worry, that allow us to let go of what we can’t control. Give us a moment to catch our breath. Give us room to be grateful. We ask for a respite as we are in need of rest.
We are tired, Lord. We are tired.
Hear our prayer.
Amen.
