Here are some prayers I have written for various purposes and times of year. Most of them are from the McLean bulletins that I did.

Lord, with angels, saints, and even poets, we praise you!

Father of all, who transformed our world by coming into it through Christ our Lord, transform us through your Holy Spirit. You have saved us and changed us already. Make us part of your victory over evil, that we may live and serve you in your creation ever being renewed, for you are holy, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen.

Lord, we know that we have no righteousness of our own. We thank You that Jesus gives His righteousness to us that we may live before You.

Lord, in this time when we both celebrate love and begin our journey of remembrance of your sacrifice and glory, we acknowledge with awe that it was your love for us that sent you to the cross. Words cannot express our thanks and love to you for the love that you showed to us.

Lord, your first disciples did not “get it.” Sometimes we do not “get it” either. Help us to set our minds on the things that matter to you.
