Nan C at GC43 Day 3

Prayer for Ending the Day
Gracious God,
you are our source and you are our end.
As I end this day,
I thank you for the privilege to serve your church.
I give thanks for your wisdom
and the presence of your Spirit;
and I ask for forgiveness where I was impatient,
or where I was quick to judge.
I give this day over to you in trust.
Help me to sleep easy
and to be still in the knowledge that you are God.
Amen.
