We are sojourners upon your Ancient Path, walking under the shadow of your Holy Mountain. We are within the veil of your sacred prayer space. Your presence encourages us. We have journeyed far. We are weary; anxious and nervous at the thought that we are close to our destination.

We enter your sacred prayer space with praise in our voices, dancing with celebration. Stories of your wonderful acts have been shared through the generations. Like the wind and waves, we also remember your name. We see the Faithmarkers of our ancestors. We know you are faithful.

We gather before your Water Gate. We come together as one to hear your teachings, spoken through your word, spiritual guides and Elders. We enter your sacred prayer space in our human condition. But you shower us with blessings and encourage us to rejoice.

Send us as you will, LORD. Send us through the streets to share the good news of your birth. Send us back to the pasturelands to share with those who did not run with us. Send us to remain by your side to worship you. Send us, and we will go with you to share your glory!

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

Lectionary Readings for Today: Weekly Review

Psalm 29
Ecclesiastes 3:1-15
1 Corinthians 2:11-16

You make all things perfect in your time. Give us patience to wait for your message and wisdom to wait on you alone. Give us discernment to not expect others to do what only you can do for us.
