Here’s
a closing prayer written to follow a Pentecost sermon on Matthew 25 (though it
could easily be used on any other occasion when Matthew 25 was the focus). The prayer was written by Steve Stockman.
Closing Prayer
(inspired by a sermon
on Matthew 25)
Father
God, teach us that
Worldly
wealth is not treasure
Ceasefire
is not peace
And
benevolence is not justice
Jesus,
call us with conviction to follow you
Into
the upside down Kingdom
And
Spirit, on this Pentecost Sunday
Give
us your discernment, inspiration, courage and power
To
seek first the Kingdom of God and his justice
Knowing
that when we do
Everything
we need will be added to us.
Amen
