The Jesus Prayer

I am in a "training and equipping" class at Common Ground Christian Church that I am really excited about. The guy who teaches and leads the class is like my hero. I want to be just like him when I grow up: long hair, simple, radical, faithful, and wise.

Anyways, here is a prayer that he shared with us that I thought was just really awesome. I am trying to memorize it and thought that blogging it might aid my efforts. I am sure there will be more to come from this class...

The Jesus Prayer

Father Almighty,

Make of Heaven and earth

Set up your Kingdom in our midst.

Lord Jesus Christ, son of the living God:

Have mercy on me a sinner

Holy Spirit, breath of the living God

Renew me and the world.
