Evening Prayer

  • Lord, I thank you for the many times you gave me help,
    always listening when I called.

    In my darkest moments,
    when all seemed to be lost,
    there you were, at my side.

    The Lord always listens and has pity;
    the Lord always comes to our help.

    Our mourning you change into dancing;
    you always clothe us with joy. Psalm 30

    Reading

    There is cause for rejoicing here. You may for a time have to suffer the distress of many trials; but this is so that your faith, which is more precious than the passing splendor of fire-tried gold, may by its genuineness lead to praise, glory, and honor when Jesus Christ appears. Although you have never seen him, you love him, and without seeing you now believe in him, and rejoice with inexpressible joy touched with glory you are achieving faith's goal, your salvation. 1 Peter 1:6-9

    Intercessions

    We praise you, God our Father, for the life you give us today,
    --blessed are you, O Lord.
    We praise you for your Son who fills us with wisdom and knowledge,
    --blessed are you, O Lord.
    We praise you, Father of mercies, for preserving us from temptation,
    --blessed are you, O Lord.
