PREPARATION FOR WORSHIP... (The words below are a short prayer which may be used by

individuals before worship, offering an opportunity to prepare for

worship. And while the cares and concerns of family, life and the

world are brought with us to worship, we prepare ourselves to

share our joy and burden in God’s presence.)

Lord, sometimes we find it very hard

to accept what your word is saying to us.

As we gather here today,

help us to understand the difficult bits

and learn from them, too.

AMEN.
