John 14:1-14 "Indwelling God"
A prayer, in the form of a collect, based on a bible reading from today's lectionary
A collect based on John 14:1-14
Indwelling God,
You have been with us since before we were born but still we do not recognise you.
We follow your way not realising you are The Way. We hear your words not comprehending that you are The Word.
Open our hearts to see that truth and life are to be found within you, within us.
Within each one of us, each moment, this moment.
For then we will be satisfied.
Amen
I hope you have found this collect a useful way to engage with and explore this passage from John where Jesus says “I am the Way and the Truth and the Life. The reading has shifted from Luke’s gospel because today remembers St. Philip and St. James.
