Let Rise in Us:  Prayer for Integrity of Creation Sunday

Third Sunday of Easter

                                                Based on Acts 4:32-35; Psalm 133 and 1 John 1:1-2:2

 

Holy God, who has shown us new life in the resurrection of Jesus the Christ

Let rise in us

A testimony of your love opening our hearts

to hold things in common with all your children

offering what we have for the good of all

 

 Anointing God, who has shown us new life in the resurrection of Jesus the Christ

Let rise in us

A unity of discipleship that leads us

to using only what we need, our fair share

so that all may have enough

 

Creator God, who has shown us new life in the resurrection of Jesus the Christ

Let rise in us

            A grace of trust in your abundance

                        that we can give to others what we have

            and know you will provide to us what is needed

 

Loving God, who has shown us new life in the resurrection of Jesus the Christ

Let rise in us   

A renewal of believing that as we walk

in the same light as He

            an enduring fellowship with each other will be revealed
