Lord, hear our prayer:

Dear Lord, we would call you friend, but your glory should overwhelm us. We name you Lord, but we fail to recognize your sovereignty. We sing your praises, but do not reach the heights of heaven. We think of you as Father, but your kindness and love are beyond comparison. We celebrate your truth and we acknowledge your glory but our tiny, finite minds are hopelessly inadequate to comprehend your power. Savior, Lord, Master and King, we come with our imperfect lives and our impoverished praises. Accept them in the name of Christ Jesus.

Amen.
