Every day, Living Lutheran offers a prayer for the day from the ELCA resource Prayer Ventures, which can be downloaded here. These petitions are offered as a guide for your own prayer life as together we pray for the needs of the world and give thanks for the ministries of our church.
Sunday, Aug. 27: Pray that when asked about our faith or who Jesus is, with the help of the Spirit, we reply enthusiastically in our own words ‒ imperfect or insufficient as they may be ‒ that Jesus is our Savior and the Son of the living God through whom we are loved, forgiven, opened to God’s word and ways, set free on a new path in life and promised eternal life.
