A Collection of Prayers

I have written and offered many of the following prayers in worship services throughout my years as Associate Pastor for Cornerstone, the contemporary worship community at Highland Park United Methodist Church.

Some of the prayers below are ones that others have offered at various times and places that have inspired me and said to God what I was unable to put into my own words. I offer all of them now to you and hope that through them you will find comfort, guidance, and, most of all, connection with God.

Enlightenment

O God,
enlighten our understandings with knowledge of that which is right,
and govern our wills by your law,
that no deceit may mislead us,
no temptation corrupt us,
that we may always endeavor to do good and hinder evil.
Amid all the hope and fears of this world, take not your Holy Spirit from us.

Amen.
