A New Psalm

A couple of weeks ago, our small group spend about 30 minutes praying about what to pray. Everyone wrote down their impressions on praise, confessions, thanks, and requests. It was a great experience. The things that we felt the Holy Spirit put in our hearts was surprisingly consistent with each other - both similar and complementary.

LIFE - Psalm 2008

We praise you, Lord God, our Father and Friend –
God with us, for whom nothing is impossible

Save us Lord Jesus, from our sin and blindness,
Guide us that we may follow after You,
in the plans that you have made for us
- May we discern your paths
- May we see clearly and fully
When we stumble, let your mercy keep us from falling

Thank you for all that you are,
And for bringing us together in Your name
That we might undertake this journey together
In the fellowship of trust, support, and joy

Help us and teach us to walk through LIFE together
Open our ears to hear and our eyes to see
Fill us with your Spirit, strengthening us for the journey –
that in all things we might reflect You,
rising above the daily grind and embodying the Good News

With every step and every breath, may we bring glory and honor
To Jesus Christ: our Way, our Truth, and our Life
