Repent, Believe, Follow, a prayer

Salt Flats, Utah

  

As you settle into pray, take a few deep breaths. As we breathe in, may we breathe in your peace. As we breathe out, may we breathe out your love. 

Jesus,

You ask us to keep repenting

To keep asking for forgiveness

To know we will always makes mistakes we will always need to turn back to you

To remember your ways.

So we stop here and now and repent:

We repent …

of those times when we didn’t listen

of those times when our anger won

of the brokenness in our country

of the racism and homophobia

of the times addiction won

of the fear that holds us back

Jesus,

You ask us to keep believing

to believe when you seem absent and distant

to believe when we have turned away, turned around, forgot to practice

to believe that the Good News is good for everyone

to believe despite the news in the world

to believe when its easy and when its hard

Jesus,

You ask us to come and follow you

Give us the courage to leave behind what is holding us back

Give us the courage to jump into the unknown

Amen.
