Mark 1:27
Calling
NOW
NOW
Calling through Prayer
Revealing God,
throughout time and space
you’ve made yourself known
to the whole of creation.
When we encounter you now,
truly encounter you,
we are awed and amazed
at your great love for us,
particularly for those who are
in need of healing.
Sometimes, it is hard
to know how to respond
to your greatness!
Open our senses
to the magnificence of
your work in the world.
Let us see, hear, smell,
taste, and touch
even glimpses of your
great glory.
Deepen our awareness
of you in our daily lives
and in the lives of
those around us,
so that the whole world might grow in amazement of you.
Amen.
