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, Sept. 24: God’s perspectives of justice, fairness and reward are often different than our own. We pray the Spirit of God will open our hearts to and teach us true humility and justice as children of God called to serve our neighbor, especially those who suffer in poverty, illness, oppression and the isolation of rejection or exclusion.
