JOHN 11: 25-26

Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?”

Prayer
Mighty God,
By your power Christ is raised from death to rule this world with love.
We believe this.
We believe in You.
But for now, our grief is raw.
We feel empty.
Today the clouds of sorrow hang low and threatening, and we are fearful.
Our world has been turned upside down.
Nothing will ever be the same again.
We find it hard to accept.
Yet this is what you ask of us.
In acceptance lies peace – not in forgetting, nor in resignation, nor in busy-ness.
You have not promised us peace without sorrow; joy without pain……
It’s hard.
Very hard, Lord.
But into your love and keeping we now commit ourselves, now and always.
Amen
