A Prayer of the Day from the Methodist Church

A prayer of praise to God (Mon, 02 Nov 2026)
Almighty God, Author and perfector of our lives, you are God of all creation; the moon and the stars sing your praises, the rich and the poor revere you equally, the joyous and the grief-stricken seek you equally, the peace-lover and the warmonger look to you for strength for you are God! You saved the world even before we knew we needed saving. You provided for our needs even before we were aware of our nakedness. Your grace amazes us, your love fulfils us, your forgiving presence instils hope and our suffering is eased. Thank you for filling us with your vision. Thank you for imbuing your wisdom upon us, Almighty Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Receive our worship, hear our prayer; for you are God. Amen!

A prayer for the desire to pray (Sun, 01 Nov 2026)
Prayer is a cry in the dark, a child’s longing for home, and a hollowed soul’s seeking of fulfilment. Prayer is a two-fingered salute to the hopeless cynicism of endless false promises and a bunting-waving celebration of love in action. Prayer is a sacred space, found in the midst of the unholiest of battlegrounds and in the desolation of loss. Prayer is a memory of long lost conversations with wise elders and an exuberance of youthful anticipation. Prayer is a shared longing, a whispered dream and an open conversation. Prayer is a revolutionary act It is hope in despair And a grace-filled weaving of love’s intent. May God bless us with the desire to pray, that we might better act, for the sake of all. Amen.
