Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is well-pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen. (Hebrews 13:20-21)

Prayer of Thanksgiving
God of all Creation: You have cared for the earth and have filled it with your riches. Abundance flows in your steps, through the pastures and wilderness. You provide for our land, softening it with showers, bathing it in light, and blessing it with growth.
The hills sing with joy; the meadows are covered with flocks; the fields deck themselves with wheat; and together they glorify your name!
We thank you for Grace and Mercy through the love of our Saviour Jesus Christ the Lord. We thank you for our freedoms and for the opportunity to contribute our skills, our attributes, and our values toward the good of society.
We thank you for the mixture of our cultures, blending us into one people under God. Help us to be a light unto other nations and to further the cause of freedom and justice all over the world.
We remember those who are less fortunate than we. We lift up in prayer the victims of proverty and racism, and all those who suffer from forms of political and economic oppression. Let the word that goes forth from our mouths speak of your peace, and let us proclaim our hope in Christ as Saviour of all humankind.
When I remember You on my bed, I meditate on You in the night watches; for thou has been my help; and in the shadow of thy wings I sing for joy. My soul clings to You; Your right hand upholds me.
You hear, O LORD, the desire of the afflicted; you encourage them, and you listen to their cry...
Lord sometimes I just want to give up. My burdens are overwhelming. I don't seem to ever catch up. I can't seem to get started. I feel the pain of stress, hurt, and setbacks. Strengthen me to stand up knowing you are always with me. Fall fresh on me today so I can find my joy and peace again. Restore the broken places in my life. Give me a fresh breeze of release to lighten my load. Teach me your way and your will. Speak to me Lord in a way that I would understand and obey. Send the right people in my life to be a source of love, guidance, and new opportunties. I thank you now in advance because I believe you are an awesome God. Instead of wishing, whining, weeping, feeling weak, weary, and worried, I will worship my back to wholeness.
