Shared Prayer

Dear God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ You have given Your people the glory You gave to Your Son, so that we may be one as You are one. Forgive us for pride, suspicion, and harsh words that fracture Your body. Heal divisions in churches, in families, and in friendships, and teach us to prefer one another in love. For believers serving under pressure, for those who feel forgotten, and for those weary of conflict, let Your glory shape our thoughts, our speech, and our choices. Let unity be stronger than offense, and truth stronger than fear. We ask for grace to walk in humble agreement, in the name of Jesus Christ, and to follow the author and finisher of our faith with clean hands and a pure heart. Thank You for not letting us be alone, and for making us one in Christ. Your name be glorified O Lord. Amen.
