Gospel Reflection for January 11, 2018, Thursday – How We Should Tell God Our Prayer Petition
Our hope is in God, who gives us help. Let us call upon him, and say:
Look kindly on your children, Lord.
Lord, our God, you made an eternal covenant with your people,
— keep us ever mindful of your mighty deeds.
Look kindly on your children, Lord.
Let your ordained ministers grow toward perfect love,
— and preserve your faithful people in unity by the bond of peace.
Look kindly on your children, Lord.
Be with us in our work of building the earthly city,
— that in building we may not labor in vain.
Look kindly on your children, Lord.
Send workers into your vineyard,
— and glorify your name among the nations.
Look kindly on your children, Lord.
Welcome into the company of your saints our relatives and benefactors who have died,
— may we share their happiness one day.
Look kindly on your children, Lord.
