Daily Devotional Guide Preparing Our Hearts

Invocation: Our Prayer of Acclamation Father, we have come to know and believe the love that you have given to us. In this is love: you sent your one and only Son into the world to be our atoning sacrifice, to pay our sin debt, to overcome evil, and to restore all things whole again, under your reign. Give us eyes to understand the fullness of your love, that we might be worthy vessels of it in our relationships with others – our family and friends, our fellow followers of Christ, and those who still do not know your love. Through Jesus our Lord, we pray, amen. Call toWorship Blessed are you, O God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. And blessed is your Kingdom, both now and forever, amen. Praising Our God Te Deum Laudamus You are God: we praise you; you are the Lord; we acclaim you; you are the eternal Father: All creation worships you. To you all angels, all the powers of heaven, Cherubim and Seraphim, sing in endless praise: Holy, holy, holy Lord, God of power and might, heaven and earth are full of your glory. The glorious company of apostles praise you. The noble fellowship of prophets praise you. The white-robed army of martyrs praise you. Throughout the world the holy Church acclaims you; Father, of majesty unbounded, your true and only Son, worthy of all worship, and the Holy Spirit, advocate and guide.
