Prayer of Commitment

In today's homily, I am inviting  you to dare this prayer each day this week.  It comes from our Book of Common Prayer, pp. 832-833.

Almighty and eternal God, so draw our hearts to you, so guide  our  minds, so fill our imaginations, so control our wills, that we may be wholly yours, utterly dedicated to you;  and then use us, we pray, as you will, and always to your glory and the welfare of your people, through our Saviour Jesus Christ.  Amen.

Would you join me each day this week in praying this prayer?  And, would you add to that a request to Jesus to take you outside your comfort zone and give you courage to dare at least one thing a day for him this week.  I'm going to try this myself.  Would you join me?  And, would you consider emailing me about what this proves to be like?  You also are free to post on this blog.

I mentioned a 20-minute-a-day spiritual workout as an idea.  More on that later.

Peace,

David
