Prayer for Endurance

Prince of Peace, who died for us,
Praise to you, Messiah.
May you come again soon.
While we wait,
Let us be your servants on earth,
Just as the saints serve you in heaven.
Give us endurance for the trials ahead.
Forgive our failures
So we can forgive the failures of others.
Keep us alive in times of despair,
And protect us from ourselves,
For you are the one true God.
Amen

Open Gates

Heaven's gates are open.
We forget that Christ's mission
Was to open the way to eternity.
His truth is that
The Prince of Peace is the mechanism
Through which we all enter.
He may have many different names
And many different aspects,
But in Him we reach God.
All we must do is seek the Almighty.

That Which Hath Been Is Now

That which hath been is now; and that which is to be hath already been.

Time traps us in its forward flow.
We cannot go back.
God is not bound as we are.
His is the past, the present, and the future.
All are one to God.
The Prince of Peace knows
What was, what is, what will be.
From the beginning until the end,
The Almighty's will prevails.
We must remember
That we move on a larger stage
Than we can comprehend.
Only when the curtain falls
Can we begin to understand.

Easter Prayer

O Risen Christ,
Who has conquered death,
Praise to you,
The Lamb of God.
May your message spread everywhere.
May your love reign on earth
And in heaven.
Let us partake of your bread and wine
In remembrance of you.
Let us acknowledge the Suffering Servant,
As we become servants to others.
Protect us from ourselves.
Help us to protect others.
For you are the beginning and the end,
The Prince of Peace.
Amen

Closeness

Sunshine fills the morning.
The gray rain of yesterday is gone.
The sun is far away in miles,
Yet close in warmth and light.
The Almighty governs infinity,
Yet cares for me every day.
God stands outside of time,
Yet journeys with me as I grow older.
The Prince of Peace can sound the trumpet of eternity,
Yet listens to my daily prayers.
Creator, Love, and Word.
Past, Present, and Future.
Trinity.

Prayer to Creator, Love, and Word

Creator, Love, and Word,
Who has been, is, and will be,
Wonderful,Counselor,The Mighty God,
The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace
Blessed is your name in all its forms.
Bring your peace to all the world.
Reign on earth as well as in heaven.
Nourish our souls with your breath.
Ignore our failures
As we ignore the failures of others.
Guide our steps to the paths of righteousness,
Keep us from destruction
Because you are love in action
Through time and eternity.
Amen
