Let us pray: Lord, I ask that you inspire me always to do my best - not comparing myself with others, but only with myself. Lead me, Lord, to discover and use my own talents to the full. May I live in such a way that I help others to experience success, as well as praising them for the good use of their abilities - looking not so much at the degree of achievement but at the effort put in. Stop me from judging people or jumping to conclusions about them, but lead me to respect and accept others for who they are, focussing on the positive rather than the negative. Amen.

Let us pray: Lord, I do not want to be selfish. I do realise how important it is to value and appreciate myself, and I know that I need genuine love for myself f I am fully to love others. Remind me of the importance of keeping time and space and quiet for myself, and remind me to respect the personal needs of others, too. Lord God, you who call me by my name, I thank you for making me who I am. Inspire me to grow as a genuine and sincere person with a positive attitude, right values, and a generous spirit. Amen.

Let us pray: Lord, I need to keep an eye on the small things in my life as well as the bigger issues, because my thoughts become my attitude, my attitude becomes my words, my words become my actions, and my actions form my character. Be there, Lord, in that instant before every thought, that I may choose wisely my thoughts and my attitude, my words and my actions, so that I grow as the person you call me to be. Amen.

Let us pray: Lord, I ask for the gifts of knowledge and wisdom and understanding. What I pray for I intend to work at, so that I may develop an open mind, a thirst for knowledge, and a wisdom that makes good use of my knowledge and experience. I know that any gifts are useless if I do not also have love and concern for others, and so I ask that you inspire me to live in such a way that I am caring and compassionate and promote understanding between people. May others respect me, Lord, as much as I respect them. Amen.

Let us pray: Loving Lord, you tell us in the Bible that whatever wrong we have done you tread down our faults to the bottom of the sea. Mic 719 We know there is no need to keep thinking about what we have done in the past, Is 4318 because you pardon the wrongs we have done, and you delight in showing mercy. Mic 718 You bind up all our wounds Ps 1473 and you renew us by your love. Zeph 317 Lord, you love all that you have made, Wis 1124 and it is your very nature to love and forgive. Lead us to be generous in accepting and forgiving others in the same way as you accept and forgive us. Amen.

Let us pray: Lord Jesus, bring your love to our lives in a new way today so that any fear that we might have is driven away, knowing that “perfect love casts out fear”. Then your light will shine more brightly in us, and others will be able to see the good things that are done in your name. Help us to grow more aware of the love and respect and dignity that you give us in calling us your “friends”. We ask that your Spirit acts in us so that we discover and take pride in who we really are. Make us credible witnesses of your love so that others may more readily share in your love and your light, you who are the light of the world. Amen.

4 Let us pray: In times of difficulty, Lord, may we support others with the same care and concern as we would like to experience ourselves. Amen.

Let us pray: Lord, our God and King, your greatness is seen throughout the earth. When I gaze at the heavens which your fingers have formed, and look at the moon and the stars which you have set there, I realise how small we are in the majesty of your creation. Yet you treasure us above all that you have made, and you give us control over all the works of your hand - animals both wild and tame, birds in the air, and the creatures of the sea. Lord, our God and King, your greatness is seen throughout the earth.

Let us pray: God our Father, the landing on the moon was one of the most significant events in human history. We give thanks for the skills and expertise and the courage and co-operation which led to that successful venture. In giving thanks we recall, too, that the astronauts showed their appreciation and reminded us of important values. We pray for the power of your Spirit in our lives that we may live in thankfulness and be people of vision and courage who have compassion for one another. Amen.

Let us pray: God our Father, we thank you that in the vastness of your creation there is something special about the beauty of this earth. Into our world which you love so much you sent Jesus, your Son - your Word who became a human being - and he made his home among us. Open our eyes that we may have a sense of wonder and awe that leads us to treasure all that you have made. Show us how to value all who are a part of our lives this day. Amen. Quote:

Let us pray: We pray, Lord, for all who will need strength and courage today: - for those who are seriously ill; - for those who are in desperate situations and see no hope of anything different; - for those who find it difficult to face others or themselves; - for those in pain from illness or mistreatment or torture; - for those who know that others depend on them. For all these people we ask for the power of your Spirit in their lives. Amen.

The word “grace” is sometimes used to mean God’s power in a person’s life.We use the words of John Newton’s hymn as our prayer today, asking that we may be aware of God’s amazing grace in our daily lives: Amazing grace! How sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me. I once was lost, but now I’m found; was blind, but now I see. ‘Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, and grace my fears relieved. How precious did that grace appear the hour I first believed. Through many dangers, toils and snares I have already come. ‘Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far, and grace will lead me home. The Lord has promised good to me; his word my hope secures. He will my shield and portion be as long as life endures.

Let us pray: God our Father, the star of Bethlehem was a sign of faith for the Wise Men, and their faith led them to discover the newly-born Jesus in Bethlehem. May we grow in faith and discover Jesus in our daily lives. Lord, hear us Lord, graciously hear us. Thousands of people worked together to enable the astronauts to land on the moon. May we grow in our appreciation for all who are part of our lives. Lord, hear us Lord, graciously hear us. 6 The Wise Men had a sense of vision and purpose - and so did the astronauts. Give us the power of your Holy Spirit that we may share your vision of individuals and of our world. Lord, hear us Lord, graciously hear us,

Let us pray: Lord, I want to be responsible for my own life, and I want to make positive choices each day Inspire me to get my priorities right and be generous in my care and concern for others. In busy days and casual days remind me, too, of my basic human need for personal time and quiet and space, and lead me to respect the personal needs that others also have. Amen.
