...we speak of what we know,

and bear witness

     to what we have seen...

                 John 3. 11

(What do we talk about with others?

What do they know about us?

Do our lives bearing witness

  about our relationship with Jesus?

Yes, in everything we do and say,

how we treat others,

how we work,

     and Whom we worship.)

O LORD,

May our relationship with You

and our love for You

   stand as evidence of our witness.

Help us to follow You

  into whatever You place us today

and among whomever

       You have appointed us

       to point them to You.

May our lives bear witness

   in all we do and say

and be imprinted by Your love.

Grant us the words to speak

    that tell of You and Your goodness

    in this broken world.
