EVENING PRAYER for the day - 31/05/2007 - by William Barclay

O God,

the giver of all good gifts we thank You for all happy things which came to us this day.

We thank you for any kindness which we have received.

We thank You for any word of thanks or praise or encouragement which has come to us

We thank You for anything which made us feel that we were needed and valued and appreciated.

We thank You for any new friendship that we have made,

and for any old friendship which has become still more strong and precious.

We thank You for any temptation which we have been enabled to resist,

and for any service that we have been enabled to render.

Accept, O God, all in this day which has been in accordance with your will, and forgive

That which has not been so;

and help us to lay ourselves to sleep in perfect fellowship with you and with our fellow-men;

through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen

Apostles" Creed

I believe in God the Father, Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth:And in Jesus Christ, his only begotten Son, our Lord: Who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary: Suffered under Pontius Pilate; was crucified, dead and buried: He descended into hell: The third day he rose again from the dead:He ascended into heaven, and sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty: From thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead: I believe in the Holy Ghost: I believe in the holy catholic church: the communion of saints: The forgiveness of sins: The resurrection of the body: And the life everlasting. Amen.

The Nicene Creed

We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all that is, seen and unseen.

We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, of one Being with the Father. Through him all things were made. For us and for our salvation he came down from heaven: by the power of the Holy Spirit he became incarnate from the Virgin Mary, and was made man. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was buried. On the third day he rose again in accordance with the Scriptures; he ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end.

We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son. With the Father and the Son he is worshiped and glorified. He has spoken through the Prophets. We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church. We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins. We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen.
