Sabbath Vespers

                                             

If you call the Sabbath a delight… then you will find your joy in the Lord."

Divine Architect of Rest, we pause today as the sun climbs high, acknowledging that the world continues to turn even when our hands are still. We thank You for the gift of the Sabbath—a sanctuary in time where we can lay down our tools and pick up our peace.
We ask for a refreshing of our minds. In a season where our days are often filled with the noise of productivity and the rush of innovation, let this day be a quiet room. We release the weight of "doing" and embrace the grace of "being." Restore the energy we have poured out into our work, our students, and our communities over this past week.
For Shared Purpose We lift up our global family. We pray that our shared purpose would be the thread that binds us together across every distance. May our collaboration be marked by empathy and our leadership by a servant’s heart. Let us remember that while we build for the future, we live in the present.
We lift Jen before You today again. Be with her, strengthen her as she goes to the hospital on Monday. We pray for Samira - grant her physical and mental resilience as she undergoes another round of Immunotherapy on Wednesday. For Lisa, as she has survived and overcome, let he daughter Arielle overcome as well. For strength to Lisa in reestablishing her life and her court case. We pray for Victoria and Alison, for Joan and Lindsey. And Lord, we widen this prayer to every person fighting cancer right now, including Swenson's husband. 
We pray for the seniors, specially the senior gentleman in India who has been your humble servant. We pray for his healing and strength as he undergoes dialysis and for his daughter and caretaker.
We pray for Pastor Ben and his family in India.
May this Sabbath bring:
Rest that restores. Peace that settles the soul. Joy that rises from gratitude. Faith that grows deeper. Light that guides every step.
Closing May the peace of this day linger in our hearts long after the sun sets, fueling our purpose for the week to come.
Amen. 

Please join us every week in our Sabbath Prayer for the week. We request your support in adopting prayer points for people mentioned, in your own prayers this week and become vessels of His healing.
