Faith is a living, bold trust in God's grace, so certain of God's favor that it would risk death a thousand times trusting in it. Such confidence and knowledge of God's grace makes you happy, joyful and bold in your relationship to God and all creatures. The Holy Spirit makes this happen through faith. Because of it, you freely, willingly and joyfully do good to everyone, serve everyone, suffer all kinds of things, love and praise the God who has shown you such grace. - Martin Luther

Saturday after Ash Wednesday - Prayer

Prayer for the Holy Spirit's Guidance

Gracious God,
Send your Holy Spirit to deepen our worship life.
Open our hearts to the gifts and cultures which surround our church.
Open our hearts to the people who are different from us.
In Jesus' Name.
Amen
