 Lord, I pray that your gospel would be brought into our hearts in this time of worship. Lord, that whatever encumbrance there is, whether it be sickness, whether it be our struggle against sin, whether it gets to be the difficulties of a fallen world, that we would be able to lay them all aside and take up the yoke which is light in the joy of Jesus Christ. Lord, we thank you that when we pray in his name, you answer, and so we do. And all God's people say, amen.
