Shared Prayer

God of all grace We praise You, for Your mercy has held us when nothing else could. Scripture declares that it is of Your mercies that we are not consumed, because Your compassions fail not. We are not kept by our own strength or our planning, but by a love that refuses to let us go. So we bring You the weariness we carry, the grief that lingers, and the fears we cannot say out loud. Let Your compassion meet us there. In the name of God's word, we ask for fresh mercy where strength has run out. We rebuke every spirit of despair that tells us we are finished, for You have purposed to sustain Your people and to show mercy without end. We are still standing because You are good, and we will not be consumed. Thank You for mercy we did not earn and could never repay. Thank You that You never grow tired of us. Blessed be Your holy name. Amen.
