Pentecost, Collect (Redub)


God of comfort,
we are so glad that you
have sent your light and help to us,
by your Spirit.
May we live in your light
and sense your love
in our world,
in the people around us
and in our lives.
Amen.

The Gunning Fog readability index suggests 8.4 years of formal education is required to understand this prayer on a first reading, the Common Worship prayer requires 31.69 years.

Here's the information on how this prayer is a redub.

My collection of five Pentecost prayers are here.

You can also look at the full Index of Prayers.

The project runs from Advent 2012 to Advent 2013.

If you want to use the prayers, an acknowledgement of myself as author and, if there's space, the link to my blog would be much appreciated.
