week of 11/15


Lord our hearts, whether heavy laden or overflowing with joy, are Yours. Yet to share these innermost things that are Yours and ours with others takes courage and faith. God, we lift our endings and beginnings, our pains and failures, our worries and hopes, before you and the community of your saints. We know that you are a God that breathes life into dry bones. God we ask you to hear these our deepest hurts, our joyous triumphs, our wearying concerns, and our love for others as we share those here with you and with others

Rebirth at Penn Wynne Presbyterian Church

One might think God/Christ?The Source/The Force as an omni-present, universal Wi-Fi network, which our species has been disconnected from for some 13,000 years. “how did all the animals escape the tsunami?” Wi-Fi updates perhaps? I think it’s time to switch ours back on It’s in your pineal gland. PS: if you think 2012 is the end, you are moving backwards. It’s only the beginning.

Please pray for my grandparents: ----- who is in a nursing home, and --------- who is taking care of her and my aunt. ------- who suffers with down syndrome and is also in a home.

Also, please pray to help me control myself and my drinking and spending so that I can be a more balanced individual. and please pray for my parents and my girlfriend, ----- help her to achieve balance in her life.

Christ walk with us, cry with us, laugh with us, speak to us, hold us as we falter, encourage us as we grow, lead us in new directions, teach us new ways, and show us unseen joys, be present in all of our pain and our suffering and our worry as we know you are present in our joy and peace. bring healing where these seems only to be death and suffering, When the world takes from us, discourages us, lies to us, batters us, You lift us up. Please continue to walk behind us, healing that which we have broken, with us to hold us as the winds buffet and blow, and before us leading us in the ways we should walk. In the name of the one who brings life out of endings, Jesus Christ, amen.

"God is doing for us what we
could not do for ourselves"

In some of our cases that is
everything.

Every last iota of being.

Yes.
