Some simple intercessions in case you need some ideas…
As we wander in the luscious vineyards, taste the grapes and drink sweet wine; you see us in our rejoicing. Help us to see you. As we come to worship tired, but dutiful, wondering what good it will do; you see us in our disconnection. Help us to see you. As we stumble and fall, hurt each other and forget your love; You see us in our lostness. Help us to see you. As we are battered by pain, confused and in grief; You see us in our suffering. Help us to see you. As we start to hope again and perceive signs of resurrection; You see us through loving eyes. Help us to see you. And we bring before you those [we have mentioned and those] on our hearts that need your healing touch and to know that you see them… We thank you for putting us into communities of faith and love, and thank you for those who lead us… And we ask for your mercy on this fractious and divided world, for peace with the Earth, for peace between nations, and a new awareness of our unity in Christ… Show us the path you are calling us to as individuals and communities, and give us the grace and courage to follow it. Amen.
