Below are a couple of prayers that you could use if you wish. The bible has lots of prayers in the book of Psalms, a favourite is Psalm 23, The Lord is my Shepherd.
Winter Prayer
Where do you look for warmth in the midst of winter?
In a technofibre onesie or in a longstanding friendship;
In the aircon turned up high or the tinkle of a child’s laughter;
In the crowds of a shopping mall or pages of a favourite novel?
May this winter bless you
With the deeper knowing
Of the warmth of God’s love for you
And the invitation to share …
Spring Prayer
Wake up to the blessings of Spring,
The fragrance of blossom,
The hopefulness of light,
Promises unfurling
and the invitation to new life and love in Jesus Christ.
Trinity Blessing
Faith to uphold you, love to enfold you, laughter to light up each day;
Smiles on your faces, goodness and graces, for all these blessings we pray;
Join us to ask for God’s blessing on the people, community and world in which we live.
Autumn and Easter Prayer
Know yourself blessed today by God who loves you,
Jesus who walks beside you,
Holy Spirit who inspires you!
May you be surprised to discover …
you have been a blessing to one another.
May blessings fall on each street in Sandringham
as autumn rains, refreshing and restoring.
Let’s give thanks for this season of glowing pomegranates and mandarins,
crisp apples and earthy mushrooms.
Taste and see, God is good.
God’s Easter blessing this week;
The life-giving answers you seek;
Sharing light when dark is the way;
God’s peace at the end of the day.
