A daily prayer during this COVID-19 crisis

During these difficult days, Bishop Sudarshana Devadhar and the members of the Extended Cabinet are sharing a daily prayer based on the Revised Common Lectionary for the week.
You are welcome to use these in worship or in your own devotions
​
Today’s prayer

Loving Christ,
You say to us, “Do not let your hearts be troubled.”
I guess our hearts are troubled, or you would not need to say it.
You say to us, “Believe ...”
I guess we struggle to believe, or you would not need to remind us.
Tell us again that you go to prepare a place for us.
Tell us again.
Tell us you will take us to yourself --
that you will be with us no matter what,
that we get to be with you,
that your way will be made plain before our faces.
Love us the way you loved Thomas
who so often gave voice to everyone’s doubts.
Love us the way you loved Philip
who needed to be shown again and again.
Dwell in us so that we can be about your greater work
?of finding your way,
?of speaking your truth,
?of honoring your gift of life,
even now …
?especially now.
We ask all of this the way you teach us to ask — in your name,
believing that you will make it so. 
Amen.
​
By Rev. Jill Colley Robinson, Vermont District Superintendent
Inspired by and quoting John 14.1-14, and in honor of our Loving, Mothering Christ
