Prayer Offered for August 19, 2024

God of all creation, at the beginning of this new week, fill us with wonder and gratitude for the abundance of Your blessings. Teach us to delight in the anticipation of this day’s surprises.

We lift our voices to praise You for the beauty of the Earth, for the harvests of field and orchard. Give us hearts that long to share with those who suffer from want and hopelessness. 

Bring the healing light of Your presence into the struggles of our lives, so that by our efforts for the common good, our world will draw closer to healing, peace, and justice.—AMEN.
