Prayer

5 Movements
Centering Focus - Reflection and Petition - Collect - Gratitude - The Lord’s Prayer

Centering Focus
Take a deep breath. Pause and settle into the present moment:

Leader
O heavenly Father, you have filled the world with beauty (pause):
Open our eyes to behold Your gracious hand in all Your works (consider);
that, rejoicing with Your whole creation, we may learn to serve
You with joy; for the sake of him through whom all
things were made, Your Son Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Reflection and Petition
(Open your life to God and say what needs to be said)

Collect (Prayer of Intention)
All
O God, you made us in your own image and redeemed us through Jesus your Son: Look with compassion on the whole human family; take away the arrogance and hatred which infect our hearts; break down the walls that separate us; unite us in bonds of love; and work through our struggle and confusion to accomplish your purposes on earth; that, in your good time, all nations and races may serve you in harmony around your heavenly throne; through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Leader
The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ, and He shall reign for ever and ever! Amen.

(Rev. 11:15)

Offering Gratitude

The Lord’s Prayer

All
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name,
thy kingdom come, thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
For yours is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory,
for ever and ever. Amen.

Scripture

Exodus 20:1-4, 7-10, 12-21

The Ten Commandments

1 And God spoke all these words:

2 “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery.
3 “You shall have no other gods before me.
4 “You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth
beneath or in the waters below.
7 “You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God, for the Lord will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name.
8 “Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. 9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 10 but the seventh day is a sabbath to the Lord your God.
12 “Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the Lord your God is giving you.
13 “You shall not murder.
14 “You shall not commit adultery.
15 “You shall not steal.
16 “You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor.
17 “You shall not covet your neighbor’s house. You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, or his male or female servant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.”

18 When the people saw the thunder and lightning and heard the trumpet and saw the mountain in smoke, they trembled with fear. They stayed at a distance 19 and said to Moses, “Speak to us yourself and we will listen. But do not have God speak to us or we will die.”

20 Moses said to the people, “Do not be afraid. God has come to test you, so that the fear of God will be with you to keep you from sinning.”

21 The people remained at a distance, while Moses approached the thick darkness where God was.

Oh how I have so much to learn

Prayer

4 Movements (read together):
Centering Focus (Visio - The Nicene Creed - Reflection and Petition - Lord’s Prayer

Centering Focus (Visio Divina - Psa 27:4)

Visio


”
One thing I ask from the Lord, this only do I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the Lord and to seek him…”

The Nicene Creed
We believe in one God, the Father almighty,
maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible.

And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only Son of God,
begotten from the Father before all ages,
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God, begotten, not made;
of the same essence as the Father.
Through him all things were made.

For us and for our salvation he came down from heaven;
he became incarnate by the Holy Spirit and the virgin Mary, and was made human.

He was crucified for us under Pontius Pilate; he suffered and was buried.
The third day he rose again, according to the Scriptures.
He ascended to heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again with glory to judge the living and the dead.
His kingdom will never end.

And we believe in the Holy Spirit,
the Lord, the giver of life. He proceeds from the Father and the Son,
and with the Father and the Son is worshiped and glorified.
He spoke through the prophets.

We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic church.
We affirm one baptism for the forgiveness of sins.
We look forward to the resurrection of the dead,
and to life in the world to come. Amen.

Reflection and Petition
(Open your life to God and say what needs to be said)

The Lord’s Prayer

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name,
thy kingdom come, thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those
who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
For yours is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory,
for ever and ever. Amen.

Scripture

Matthew 16:13-20

Peter’s declaration of Jesus’ messiahship

13 Jesus came to Caesarea Philippi. There he put this question to his disciples: “Who do people say that the son of man is?”

14 “John the Baptist,” they replied. “Others say Elijah. Others say Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.”

15 “What about you?” he asked them. “Who do you say I am?”

16 Simon Peter answered.

“You’re the Messiah,” he said. “You’re the son of the living God!”

17 “God’s blessing on you, Simon, son of John!” answered Jesus. “Flesh and blood didn’t reveal that to you; it was my father in heaven. 18 And I’ve got something to tell you, too: you are Peter, the rock, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell won’t overpower it. 19 I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. Whatever you tie up on earth will have been tied up in heaven, and whatever you untie on earth will have been untied in heaven.”

20 Then he sternly ordered the disciples not to tell anyone that he was the Messiah.

Communion

Verse 1
Take me back to the garden
Lead me be back to moment I heard Your voice
Take me back to communion
Lead me back to the moment I saw Your face

Pre-Chorus
And it was all so simple, It was easy to love
No space between us, It was easy to trust

Chorus
'Cause You are closer, closer than my skin
And You are in the air I'm breathing in
And here's where the dead things come back to living
I feel my heart beating again
Feels so good to know You are my friend

Verse 2
And this is the garden; here in the place I find You close
This is communion; here in the place I'm fully known

Pre-Chorus
And it was all so simple, It was easy to love
No space between us, It was easy to trust

Chorus
'Cause You are closer, closer than my skin
And You are in the air I'm breathing in
And here's where the dead things come back to living
I feel my heart beating again
Feels so good to know You are my friend

Bridge
This is where I'm meant to be; me in You and You in me
And I don't have to prove a thing; You've already approved of me
(Repeat)

Chorus
'Cause You are closer, closer than my skin
And You are in the air I'm breathing in
And here's where the dead things come back to living
I feel my heart beating again
Feels so good to know You are my friend
