September 13, 2011

Why is it so hard to do good?

Why is it so easy to slip into sin?

Why does it seem so impossible to follow Christ,

When all I am and all I do revolves around Christ

And his worship?

If it is hard for me,

A minister of word and sacrament,

Then I imagine it must also be hard

For all those with whom I come into contact.

God, please strengthen me as a pastor

So I can help others through their difficulties

And help them to find wholeness in you…

The same wholeness I continue to strive for myself.

Amen.
