Prayer for July 23

Every day, Living Lutheran offers a prayer for the day from the ELCA resource “Prayer ventures.” 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.

You can download a pdf with the monthly “Prayer ventures” here.

Thursday, July 23 We pray for the Spirit to help us better understand God’s ways and wisdom and incorporate them into our daily lives as we strive to follow Christ, love and serve our neighbors and reflect God’s truth in everything we say and do.
