Shared Prayer

Dear Father You have spoken by Your Spirit and You invite the thirsty to come, and You offer the water of life freely to whoever will. It is written, and we answer Your call with faith. Many of us feel dry inside from pressure, grief, and long battles, and some feel ashamed because sin has tangled their desires. Draw us to Jesus without delay, and awaken a willing heart within us to receive what You give. Wash our conscience, renew our love, and satisfy our souls with the life You provide. For the believer who feels alone in a crowded home, let this word be true in their bones, lo, I am with you always, and You do not turn away the one who comes. Thank You for Your open invitation and Your generous mercy. With thankful hearts we pray. Amen.
