the way liturgy works
If roteness is a danger, it is also the way liturgy works. When you don’t have to think all the time about what words you are going to say next, you are free to fully enter into the act of praying; you are free to participate in the life of God.
Prayer for the Daring
“Ever-present God,
You call us on a journey to a place we do not know.
We are not where we started.
We have not reached our destination.
We are not sure where we are or who we are.
This is not a comfortable place.
Be among us, we pray.
afghanistan prayer
Prince of Peace, we lift up our brothers and sisters in Afghanistan. We pray that you would bring an end to the wars that have ravaged this country for over two decades, and that you would restore the nation to peace and stability. (Verse and Voice)
