Unison Prayer
God of the Whirlwind, you have gathered us to be wholly present in this moment. Acknowledging your providence, we offer our gratitude for this place of worship and community – even while we ponder what lies ahead. What if as in days of old, we too have been passed the mantle of discipleship? What if as Christ’s followers we are summoned to be the champions of mercy, the beacons of justice, and the embodiment of love?
In this season of life, give us the grace to ask for a “double portion of your spirit.” So that by faith we might step into the riverbed of life’s Jordan – aided by your mercy, claiming the charge and blessing given us at baptism. In the surety of your promises, we boldly ask this in Jesus’ name, the One who was and is and is to be. Amen.
