The Lord is my light and my salvation.
Ps 27:1 NIV
Gracious God, we praise you for Jesus, light of the world and for your mighty love and power that raised him from the tomb.
May the light of Jesus break through the darkness and bring hope to difficult situations.
May the light of Jesus shine in our lives and help us to share our faith.
May the love of Jesus help us to act with compassion and care.
May the life of Jesus help us to work with strength and courage.
May the sacrifice of Jesus help us to serve with grace and humility.
May the prayers of Jesus help us to pray and live in line with God’s good and perfect will.
May the joy and peace of Jesus be in our hearts, homes and communities.
Gracious God, you know our hearts and we bring our praise and prayers before you now, in the name of Jesus, light of the world. Amen
