Every day, Living Lutheran offers a prayer from the ELCA resource Prayer ventures, which can be downloaded here. These daily petitions are offered as a guide for your own prayer life as together we pray for the needs of the world and give thanks for the ministries of our church.
Sunday, July 16 We pray for patience when our ministry doesn’t produce the results we expect; we ask the Spirit to help us reflect on our work, adapt, and understand that sometimes positive results ensue without our knowledge.
