July 2007...A Prayer for Mankind

 
Let us pray for all of mankind.
You, Lord, were sent by Your Father into this world.
You know our human frailties because You lived as one of us.
Yet You remained blameless before God.

Dear Jesus by Your painful death on the cross,
And Your glorious resurrection
You have set us free from the damnation of sin.
Let us therefore bear witness to this fact.

"It is through faith that all of us are God's children
in union with Christ Jesus...
So there is no difference between Jews and Gentiles,
Slaves and free men, between men and women.

We are all one in union with Christ Jesus.
If you belong to Christ,
Then you are the descendants of Abraham
And will receive what God has promised."*

Lord help us to be an example,
of Your saving Grace
To everyone we encounter today.
