A daily prayer during this COVID-19 crisis

During these difficult days, members of the Many Waters District of the New England Conference are sharing a daily prayer based on the Revised Common Lectionary for the week. You are welcome to use these in worship or in your own devotions.

Today’s prayer

Based on Luke 1:46-55

Holy, Mighty God,

Great things You have done.

We praise You for Your mighty works.

We see Advent in Mary's Song.

All generations will call her blessed.

We see God's Holy Son in love and mercy given.

We rejoice in God our Savior.

Your mercy and strength are faithful and loving.

May we always remember Your Mercy.

You have helped Your servant Israel in remembrance of Your mercy.

May we also remember we are blessed by the Lord.

We have a role in serving God and revealing our hope,

Jesus Christ, as Lord and Savior.

May we keep Hope, Peace, Joy and Love in this Advent Season.

Amen.

Barbara Hathaway CLM in the Many Waters District of the United Methodist Church
