Collect

Lord, you have taught us that all our doings, without love are nothing worth: send your Holy Spirit and pour into our hearts that most excellent gift of love, the true bond of peace and of all virtues, without which whoever lives is counted dead before you. Grant this for your only Son Jesus Christ's sake, who is alive and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

We all know that the Christian life is not always clear and simple path. Much of the time, we face situations that are difficult to resolve or explain: natural disasters; the tragedies of political and religious conflict; disappointment with the shortcomings in ourselves or in others. Nevertheless, we confess that God is at work in ways we do not understand. The Season of Pentecost reminds us that much of the Holy Spirit's involvement in the world today is hidden from our view. Today, we consider those around us -- relatives, friends, colleagues -- who seem to be slow or unresponsive to the roles that they have in the family, at work, in society, or in the church. We remember that the Spirit is still at work among them -- and within us -- bringing to fruition God's purposes according to God's timing.
