Description

Prayers of Adoration, Confession and Thanksgiving
for Sunday after Christmas by John Birch

ADORATION

For the joy of your presence,
changing and renewing us
day by day
we offer you our praise.
For the blessing you bring us,
the outpouring of your love
day by day,
we offer you our praise.

CONFESSION

Saving God, how easy to forget
the joy of Christmas morning
in the bustle of the moment
when pressures of this world
obscure our vision of the next.
How easy to forget the gift
so undeserved and free
with cards and baubles packed away
and thank you letters sent.

Continues...

THANKSGIVING

God of the journey from year to year
we offer you our thanks,
for the patience you show us
when so often we cause you pain,
for the kindness you show us
when we struggle to know how to pray,
for the Grace shown to us
even when we turn away.
