Praying with Paul: 'Value of Interdependence'

Sunday, February 19, 2023

Romans 12:3-8

Dear Father, who wills our interdependence,

Having gifts that differ, let us use them appropriately according to your will.

If prophesy, in proportion to one's faith. If service, diligently serving. If teaching, instructively teaching. If exhortation, strongly motivating encouragement. If giving, with liberal and generous contributions. If giving aid, with zeal. If acts of mercy, with cheerfulness.

Great Giver, give your gifts to your people through your people. But let us always give you the glory! Praise to you, our Lord.

It is in the name of Jesus, who shares all spiritual blessings with us, we ask for a growing love among all your people. Amen.
