Lord God, you have called your servants to ventures of which we cannot see the ending,
by paths as yet untrodden, through perils unknown.
Give us faith to go out with good courage, not knowing where we go, but only that your hand is leading us and your love supporting us; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Lutheran Book of Worship 1978
“We cannot assume a life of control and comfort, that things will proceed as we wish. Life often requires change, adaptation, and trust. But we have been designed for love. We have been invited to lean on the grace and goodness of God, even when we cannot see them” Laura Holck, pastor of Lutheran Church of the Cross in Calgary, Alberta
