Full Prayer
Lord this is a difficult passage. We never want to shake the dust off of our feet and walk away. Feeling that we have been a failure and not good enough to make a difference. Help us to remember that all things are done in your time and that the results of our service may never be know to us. Help us to rejoice in all that we do, for we do it in your all powerful name.
