Lord, hear our prayer:

Almighty God, Creator and Sustainer, every time we come into your presence we are amazed by your grace and understanding. We are overwhelmed by your care and concern. We are moved by the joy you have in us and we long to worship you in a way that is worthy of you. We praise you, Lord, for the way that Christ made himself as if he were nothing. He, who was divine from the beginning, emptied himself of the glory that was his by right. We praise you that he added to his divine nature all that it means to be a human being. Thank you, Lord and King.

Amen.
