Be With Us, Lord

My wife wrote this beautiful prayer for a meeting she was attended. I wanted to share it with you.



Dear Lord,
Be with us here tonight.
Be with us in our desire to serve you in others.
Be with us in our efforts to spread your word.
Be with us in our struggle to build community.
Be with us in our confusion as we seek to know your will.
Be with us in our impatience to see our efforts bear fruit.
Be with us as we bear with each others faults and weaknesses.
Be with us as we strive to use wisely all you have given us.
Be with us as we look to the future with faith and hope.
Be with us and teach us that our greatest joy is to be with you
Who live and reign forever and ever. Amen.
