Prayer for April 17

Every day, Living Lutheran offers a prayer for the day from the ELCA resource “Prayer ventures,” which can be downloaded here. These daily 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.

Friday, April 17 “Although you have not seen [Jesus Christ], you love him, and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and rejoice with an indescribable and glorious joy, for you are receiving the outcome of your faith, the salvation of your souls” (1 Peter 1:8-9). We give praise to God for stirring our faith and joy with the wonder-filled good news and mystery of our salvation through Jesus Christ. Let us give thanks that the gift of salvation is not dependent on our having complete understanding.
