A Prayer of John Stott link
The Complete Book of Christian Prayer #509

O Lord Jesus Christ
Who didst invite the heavy lade to come to thee,
And didst promise to give them rest and never to cast them out,
help us so to come to thee that we may find rest in thee,
and so to believe thy promise that we may know that thou hast received us,
for the glory of thy name,
who with the Father and the Holy Spirit art ever worthy to be trusted and adored.
Amen

A Prayer of Ambrose (c 339-97) link

O Lord, who hast mercy upon all, take away from me my sins,
and mercifully kindle in me the fire of thy Holy Spirit.
Take away from me the heart of stone,
and give me a heart of flesh,
a heart to love and adore thee,
a heart to delight in thee,
to follow and to enjoy thee,
for Christ’s sake.
In Jesus name,
Amen

Scripture Reading:  Luke 6:29-31 ((Bible Gateway)

Whoever hits you on the cheek, offer him the other also; and whoever takes away your coat, do not withhold your shirt from him either.  Give to everyone who asks of you, and whoever takes away what is yours, do not demand it back. Treat others the same way you want them to treat you.

A Prayer by Thomas a Kempis (c.1380-1471) link
The Complete Book of Christian Prayer #524

O God the Holy Ghost, most loving Comforter of the fainthearted,
I beseech thee ever to turn that which is evil in me to good
And that which is good into that which is better;
Turn my mourning into joy,
My wandering feet into the right path,
My ignorance into knowledge of thy truth,
My lukewarmness into zeal,
My fear into love,
All my material good into a spiritual gift,
All my earthly desires into heavenly,
All that is transient into that which lasts forever,
Everything human into that which is divine,
Everything created and finite into that sovereign and immeasurable good,
Which Thou Thyself art,
O my God and Saviour
Amen

Benediction: Church of England Book of Common Prayer 1928 link
The Complete Book of Christian Prayer #1174

Go forth into the world in peace;
Be of good courage;
Hold fast that which is good;
Render to no man evil for evil;
Strengthen the fainthearted;
Support the weak;
Help the afflicted;
Honour all men;
Love and serve the Lord,
Rejoicing in the power of the Holy Spirit.
And the blessing of God almighty,
The Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost,
Be upon you,
And remain with you forever.
Amen

    I was reading the service this morning, tapping the little arrow to watch (my iPad volume down for some reason) when out of the blue came a beautiful voice singing “Great is Thy Faithfulness.” I thought for a moment that God had done this just for me! After a bit, I noticed that it was part of the service. That, with the prayers and scripture was the best service ever. Thanks for your hard work in gathering these moments together.

    “Mercy Called My Name ,,,And Made Me Free !”

    Yeah !

    I am not who I once was, 
    Defined by all the things I’ve done,
    Afraid my shame would be exposed, 
    Afraid of really being known,
    But then you gave my heart a home…

    Well I walked out of the darkness and into the light,
    From fear of shame into the hope of life,
    Mercy called my name and made a way to fly,
    Out of the darkness and in to the light…

    Years of keeping secrets safe, Wondering if I could change,
    ‘Cause when you’re hiding all a lone, 
    Your heart can turn into a stone,
    And that’s not the way I want to go…

    So I walked out of the darkness and into the light,
    From fear of shame into the hope of life,
    Mercy called my name and made a way to fly,
    Out of the darkness and into the light…

    There’s no place I’d rather be,
    Your light is marvelous, your light is marvelous,
    You have come to set us free,
    You are marvelous, your light is marvelous to me…

    La La La La  la…
    La La La La  la la…
    La La La La la…
    La La La La  la la…

    So I walked out of the darkness and into the light,
    From fear of shame into the hope of life,
    Mercy called my name and made a way to fly,
    Out of the darkness and into the light…

    La La La La  la…
    La La La La  la la…
    La La La La la…
    La La La La  la la… [1]

    YaHoooooooooooo!

    ***

    You too can bee free!

    —> please venture out of the darkness and into His marvelous light !!!

    La La La La  la…
    La La La La  la la…
    La La La La la…
    La La La La  la la…

    (grin)

    hahahahahaha

    Blessings !
