A Prayer as We Approach Pentecost

on Friday, May 21, 2010

This is a Holy Spirit-themed prayer/poem based on John 14:8-27 by Pastor Dan of Christ Our Savior Lutheran Church in Anchorage. He blogs over at Pastor Dan's Grace Notes and is a person I'd love to have some coffee and conversation with.




We have seen the Lord

not high in the Heavens above

but right here in our midst

living among us

living within us

and within those who do not know

they are loved

We have seen the Lord

in the eyes of a child

the eyes of a foe

and we are not afraid

for we live in the presence of the Lord

surrounded by the Spirit

filled with the peace of Christ

and called to reach out

to let others know of this love

(Peace)

calling toward the peace of Christ

that is within them

God created and said it was good

as the children of God

We see

good

God

in all that

and in all who

surrounds us

living as the children of God

Knowing

we are never alone

(Peace )
