My prayer for the retreat weekend we will be leaving on this evening with our middle school community...
"Herein is wonder of wonders; he came below to raise me above
was born like me that I might become like him.
Herein is love; when I cannot rise to him he draws near on wings of
grace, to raise me to himself.
Herein is power; when Deity and humanity were infinitely apart
he united them in indissoluble unity, the uncreated and created.
Here in is wisdom; when I was undone, with no will to return to him,
and no intellect to devise recovery, he came God-incarnate,
to save me to the uttermost, as a man to die my death,
to shed satisfying blood on my behalf, to work out a perfect righteousness for me... Amen"
