prayer and liturgy from faith and worship

Christian Prayer within worship is a conversation, but sometimes the words dry up when we start talking to the creator of the universe! At times like this it can be useful to dip into prayers that others have written, as they can often inspire us and open our minds to new ways of praising and worshipping our God.

This is a collection of new Celtic inspired prayers and liturgies written in the beauty of the Welsh Countryside for private and public use, together with a selection of worship resources and suggested books on prayer.

The early Christian saints understood that God was with them as they milked a cow, sowed a field, weeded, ploughed or harvested. He was with them in the mundane as well as the spectacular, the wind and rain as well as the sunshine, on mountain top and seashore. Worship, prayer and life were truly connected.

Ah, if only we could reach that point, how our lives and worship would be enhanced!

John Birch, Kidwelly, Wales

 

 

 

There is glory
within each sunrise, Lord
a warm effusion of praise
reaching upwards and out
connecting earth
with heaven
creator
with created
Shafts of sunlight
arms outstretched in worship
encourage participation
from those who watch
and wonder
at the beauty of it all

"The Christian does not think God will love us because we are good, but that God will make us good because He loves us; just as the roof of a sunhouse does not attract the sun because it is bright, but becomes bright because the sun shines on it."
C.S.Lewis
