it will take grace to let others here be different to our expectations of them
so we pray for grace
it will take courage for each of us to live beyond the story we know of ourselves
so we pray for courage
it will take wisdom to believe we don’t have all the answers
so we pray for wisdom
it will take hope to believe our future is not yet determined
so we pray for hope
in the story of god all expectations are defied
all things are made possible
the whole world is made new
it will take faith to live as though this can be our story
and so we pray for faith.
