Petition for Unity

By Stephen W. Hiemstra

Loving Father,

All praise and honor, power and dominion, truth and justice are yours because you brought us together and called us to be a people, your people. Unify us in Christ.

Forgive our inattention, our complacency, our lethargy in the face of challenges. Unify us in Christ.

Thank you for the many blessings in this life: health, family, homes, and medical plans. Unify us in you, not these other things.

In the power of your Holy Spirit, open our eyes and unstop our ears as the fire of self-destruction approaches. May we feel the heat before we are burned and all that is precious to us is swept away.

In Jesus’ precious name, Amen.
