Spirit of the living God present with us now,
Enter you, body, mind and spirit,
And heal you of all that harms you,
In Jesus’ name, Amen
This was my prayer for people today while I was on my walk. I’ve written about this prayer from Iona worship before and undoubtedly I’ll do so again because it seems like just the right prayer for so many situations.
Today I was praying for people who are not feeling good about themselves--in the low self-esteem category. I can’t see it; from my perspective they are kind, talented, caring—all of that—but they don’t feel worthy; all they can see are their flaws. All of this harms them, so I am praying that they heal body, mind and spirit. I know deep in my heart that that is what God wants.
