I give my life away

Dear God,

Lord be with the church as we continue to grow and develop through you.
Help us to build relationships and share our love with others.
Be at the forefront of the choices we make.
Fill us with you from the inside out and take our talents and let us use them for you.

Be with the group that meets Sunday nights.
Guide our lives to work as a group to fulfill the needs around us.
Be in our thoughts, words and actions as we meet weekly.
Help us build relationships with God and each other.
Let us use our hands to serve you.

You have moved me beyond description and yet there is so much more work to do in me.
Fill my heart with compassion and show me the path that you have prepared.
Help me to follow the way of Jesus.
Open my eyes to the needs of the people and community around me.
You are the way, the truth and the life.
My heart is open to you.
I give my life to you.
