Dear God,

We pray; we see.  We wait; we give.  We work; we pray.  Whenever your church wants to grow, there is a lot of trusting.  We trust you to give us a vision.  We trust you to lead us.  We trust you to help us give.  We trust you as we pray.  We trust you to help us build.  Finally, we trust you to consecrate your church.

This morning we went to a consecration service which was years in the making.  The congregation trusted you to help them all along the way.  They wanted most of all to follow your lead.  They took risks and kept moving forward.  Today we all celebrated.

You continually ask us to trust you in the church, in our home, in our relationships, in our future, and every other way.  Trusting you is the greatest leap we take in faith. 

Heavenly Father,
lead us
to your will.
Help us
follow you.
Make your way plain
that we
may faithfully
fulfill your desire
for our lives.
Build up
our trust
that we
may walk
side by side
with you.
We give you thanks.

Love, Andrea
