a photo journal of our month in Kenya so far this summer....
"Lord, you have called us to be servants in a world of great need, but we have focused our first attention on making ourselves comfortable.
You have called us to give special care to the least, the lost and the broken, but we attend most to those who are most like us.
You have called us to live the gospel, but we have been content to simply to hear and agree.
We confess that we have often missed the joy of living our lives wholly abandoned to you.
Forgive our hesitancy, our passivity, our comfort with superficiality.
And grant that as your people, we might grow to serve you with joyful hearts and eager hands. Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
(thanks to Evelyn Raines for first sharing this prayer with us.)
