Prayer for the church
Our Heavenly Father, shine your light into our hearts. Shine through our complacency and indifference. Ignite the embers of compassion within us. Light our paths so we may know your will. Illuminate our hearts with grace and truth. Be the true light of the world. Glorify Christ through us (and despite us). Write us (though not only us) into your story of redemption and salvation. Unite us in one faith, one baptism, and one Lord. We are your Bride. Forgive our adulturous squabbling and greediness. Forgive our rebellious independence. Romance us once again to your side, never to leave you again.

We pray these things in the Glorious name of Christ,
Amen
