We Are Listening – Ephesians 1:18-19b, Colossians 3:1-3
L: Lord, you are not silent.C: Lord, we are listening.
L: Lord, we confess. We do not always hear. We do not always see. Worse, we do not always want to. We are disappointingly content with a heaven-less kingdom.
C: Open the eyes of our hearts, Lord, that we may know and want to know the hope to which you have called us-the glorious inheritance of your holy people and his incomparably great power for us who believe.
L: He raised Christ from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms.
C: We have been raised with Christ, set our hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.
L: God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way
C: Set our minds on things above, not on earthly things. For we died, and our life is now hidden with Christ in God.
L: Lord, you are not silent.
A: Lord, we are listening. Amen.
