Racism, Drunkenness, Gaza, Israel, The Curse of Ham and lots of other stuff - Genesis 9:18-29

Father, forgive us for treating people as our servants
Forgive us for not treating others with honour and respect
As made in the image of God.
Thank you for giving us a saviour to fix the mess of this world
Amen

Rainbows, Blessing, Covenant and God’s Comeback - Genesis 8:20-9:17

Father in heaven
You have made promises to us.
And you have done this knowing that the intentions of our hearts are evil.
We are amazed at your grace.
Forgive us that we do not value human life highly.
Forgive us that we do not believe that you will keep your covenant promises to us.
Put our eyes on the rainbow
And the sparrow
And the lilies
And the clouds
And the cross.
Help us to remember and live knowing that you are committed to us, that your Son has come and that your Son is coming soon.
Amen
