Bible Readings:
Philippians 1:3-4,6 (NIV); 2 Corinthians 12:8-10 (NIV)
Prayer adapted from Still Waters, Deep Waters:
May the powerlessness of God on the cross
embrace you in every aspect of your life.
No longer strive to imitate someone
who acts out of desire and power,
but rest in the amazing grace
that emerges out of nothingness.
Go now, in this grace, this life.
It is eternal.
It is God.
It is in You,
so far as you dare to live in it.
Amen
