Prayer
of Approach
(inspired by Hebrews 5, 8, 10)
We could not approach you,
O God,
were it not for the person of Jesus, Lord and Saviour, Servant and
Friend.
His perfect love and life could have widened the gap between us and
you,
but instead he offered himself as the way to you,
by living out the truth
of your love and by gracing our lives with the gift of his life.
Accept our
prayers and praise,
our spoken and unspoken words of thankfulness
for being
able to approach you, O God, through Jesus—
the way, the truth and the life.
May
this time of worship increase our desire to live lives
which honour and glorify
you.
This we pray in Jesus’ name. Amen.
