Thank you, Divine Family, for this sacred time with you. Thank you for Jesus, who is the image of God, helping us to see, know, and experience your love in real and tangible ways. Thank you, our purpose is in Jesus.

Today, we invite you to reread, rest and reflect on the prayers of the past week.

Lectionary Readings for Today: Weekly Review
Psalm 148
Isaiah 54:1-13
Revelation 21:1-7

We enter your sacred prayer space and are surrounded by your wisdom. We admit that we are among those who have placed hope and expectations in human rulers and governments. You reveal to us that only you can fulfil our expectations and meet our needs.

Thank you, Jesus, for being the same today, yesterday, and forever. Adonai, your love is constant. Thank you, our strength comes from you, God. With joy, we sing your praises. Thank you for suffering the ultimate sacrifice, so our sins are forgiven, and we can approach God with confidence. We are blessed.

Place us in your presence. Surround us with your wise council of Elders and Spiritual Directors. Encourage us to speak favourably about you, and encourage others as we journey together.

Reveal the calling you have prepared for us. Prepare us with all we need for our journey. Give us courage, wisdom, and compassion to sojourn with you and others in a good way.
