DEVOTION:
Colossians 3:15–17
“Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom… And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.”
PRAYER:
Almighty and holy God, As this Wednesday morning begins, we gather our thoughts and lift our hearts to You with gratitude. Thank You for the gift of another day, for breath in our lungs, and for the quiet moments of morning that allow us to remember who we are and whose we are. Today we lift before You our church family. Bless each person who calls this community home—those who worship together regularly and those who carry this church in their hearts even when life keeps them away. Strengthen the bonds between us so that we may truly live as one body in Christ, caring for one another with patience, compassion, and grace.
Lord, we ask for Your hand upon the health of our church. Guide the leaders, encourage our volunteers, and renew the spirits of those who give their time, energy, and love so faithfully. Where there is fatigue, bring renewal. Where there is uncertainty, bring clarity. Where there is joy, deepen it. Bless the ministries that reach into our community and beyond. May every act of service, every lesson taught, every meal shared, and every quiet prayer offered become a reflection of Your love. Strengthen the missions we support and the people who carry them forward, so that hope may reach places we may never see but deeply care about.
Teach us, Lord, to live in gratitude—not only for the large blessings we recognize easily, but for the small and steady gifts that shape our days. Help us to see Your goodness in simple moments: a conversation that encourages, a helping hand offered, a quiet reminder that we are never alone. As this day unfolds, guide our steps and steady our hearts. May our lives together as a church family bring honor to Your name and become a source of hope to those around us. We entrust this day, our church, and our work for Your kingdom into Your loving care. In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
