Conference Prayer


Just returned from my final candidates conference at St Andrews tonight after 6 days. It has been days and evenings packed with learning, friendship and worship, and several late nights talking.
One marathon full day on Preaching on Sunday led us all to seek sanctuary in sunny Anstruther our heads cleared with the view , fresh air and of course the famous fish and chips which I can highly recommend.
Our final session today spoke of some Celtic spirituality and as part of this we had a few moments to write a prayer around something we did everyday , thought Id share my prayer





I wash my face this morning in the cool running water
Lord cleanse me more than skin deep
wash my heart that I may thirst for your waters of life

I wash my hands this morning in the cool running water
Lord let them be cleansed that I may only do your work in love

I wash my feet this morning in the cool running water
Lord let them be cleansed that I may only walk in the footsteps of my God
Guide me this morning
Wash over me in your spirit this morning
In Jesus name I pray
Amen
