For Artistic Gifts in Worship
Heavenly Father,
Sundays are sacred. When we worship in your house, we see so much that draws the eyes of our hearts to you. Thank you for the gifts of creative vision combined with faith that you have granted to so many to edify us in worship. As the sun’s rays are filtered through palettes of stained glass, the colorful patterns evoke beauty and awe as our gaze is turned upward to ponder how you shine so brightly in our lives. Banners teach us while touching our hearts with rich symbols and imagery. Graphics put your Word into powerful pictures. The design and thoughtfulness put into the very sanctuary in which we worship capture theological truths, drawing us further into your presence. Thank you for the many artistic gifts used to magnify you and stir the souls of your people in worship. Continue to move many to use their skills and abilities for such a noble and holy purpose.
In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
