Pray that God will help us to make connections, often unexpected but obviously from Him to see where we can work together with other members of the Body, (organizations, denominations, churches, clubs, people, media, spheres of influence, etc.) recognizing uniqueness's of each and their special passion, experience and vision but also recognizing the unity in the gospel of Christ, to the Father in the Spirit so we can work together in special, creative and unexpected ways. Help us to be creative and open to seeing the world in a different ways than we had in the past as God shows us a little bit more about who He is, what matters to Him, what He can do, so we trust him and just follow Him and watch Him do what only he can do with us as His instruments/servants. Help us to maintain a sense of awe, wonder and even mystery the more we interact with God in Word and action and abide in Christ.
