A prayer to keep on going
Gracious God,
As we live,
help us keep on going.
As we pursue our life goals,
whatever those goals may be,
help us keep on going.
When our progress slows or stalls,
help us keep on going.
When disappointments arise,
help us keep on going.
When we need to change our plans,
help us keep on going.
When life happens and brings change,
help us keep on going.
When challenges appear,
help us keep on going.
When directions become unanticipated
and our way is unforeseen,
help us keep on going.
In all times and every circumstance,
help us keep on going.
And when we can’t,
grant us the grace and strength
to be gentle with ourselves,
take the rest we need,
and try again.
We pray in Jesus’ name.
Amen.
inspired by the Rev. Jerrod Lowry
Breath prayers inspired by Isaiah 40:31
Inhale: I wait upon you, Creator.
Exhale: Renew my strength.
Inhale: I wait upon you, Holy Spirit.
Exhale: Restore my energy.
Inhale: I wait upon you, Christ.
Exhale: Rekindle my imagination.
Amen.

A prayer in the face of disappointment
When disappointment comes, God,
and disappointment will,
may we find
strength to grieve,
patience to sit with the moment,
imagination to seek alternatives,
and courage, hope, faith, and love
to give them a try.
We pray in Jesus’ name.
Amen.
A prayer for this day, a prayer for every day
Creator God,
thank you for this day.
Help us trust that
you will give us
the grace and strength
and whatever we need
to face what this day brings
We pray in the name of
Creator Sets Free [Jesus].
Amen.
inspired by “Gift from Creator Tells the Good Story 6:33-34” in the First Nations Version: An Indigenous Translation of the New Testament

Psalm 46 (Koenig revised version)
God is our refuge and strength,
Though the virus should mutate,
though events shake our hearts;
though would-be pundits rant and rage;
though the tumult make us tremble;
God is our refuge and strength.
Selah
God is our refuge and strength.
We don our masks.
We receive vaccines (if we are able).
We wash our hands (often).
We physically distance.
God is our refuge and strength.
Amen.

15 months
You could never have imagined these past fifteen months.
You could not have planned for them.
But you faced them.
You adapted,
you improvised,
you learned,
you wept,
you laughed,
you cursed,
you resisted,
you persisted.
You found strength and love
and grace and hope undreamed of.
You made it this far
and you, awesome you,
will keep on going.
