A Prayer for Sunday, September 1, 2013

The Lord’s Day

O God,

You are Almighty God, the Creator and Sustainer of all that is and the Savior and Lord of all of us; as we praise you for who you are we cannot help but realize what we are—and what we are not—in comparison to you.

And yet you reveal yourself to us, you come to us, and you love us; so we praise you not only for your awesomeness and your otherness but also for your grace that is seen most clearly in the life, death, and resurrection of your Son Jesus Christ who humbled himself to the point of dying on the cross.

May we worship you well today; may we worship you as the God who is far beyond us and who yet comes to us.

Amen.
