Jesus, the Bread of
Life- Prayer -2
Somewhere a Miracle Occurs
Somewhere, Lord, a miracle occurs, when a seed is sown in
fertile ground, germinates, grows, ripens and in due season will be harvested. Grains
of wheat.
Somewhere, Lord, a miracle occurs, when from the simplest of
ingredients, flour and water, salt and yeast, kneaded and formed. Daily bread.
Somewhere, Lord, a miracle occurs, when your word is sown in
fertile ground, germinates, grows, fruits and in due season will be harvested. Your
chosen people.
Somewhere, Lord, a miracle occurs, when as the purest of
ingredients, love, hope and joy make broken lives whole. Bread of Life.
God
of miracle, provider of daily bread, word of life and love, we offer you our
thanks.
Bread of Life, you feed us through word and sacrament. The
bread we share is a remembrance of your presence with us. Strengthen us for
service, that seeds we sow in fertile places might grow and flourish, that
food we share in fellowship might nourish and revive, that words we share in
our daily walk might glorify your name.
Bread of Life, you feed us through
word and sacrament that we might feed others. Blessed be your name! In Jesus’ name. Amen.
