Prayer for Today, Monday, May 7

Loving God,

Your Holy Spirit graces us in such a variety of ways and its movement among us is often palpable. So many good things have been happening at our church since Easter. There is a renewed energy and positive outlook. We have scores of visitors, many of whom are returning weekly. Our members care for each other. Our concern for others is catching, and our new members comment how welcome and included they feel. We are so blessed. Thank You, Gracious God, for the movement of Your Spirit in our midst. May we continue to be open to Your guidance as we seek to love You by loving others. In Jesus’ name we pray. AMEN.
