“Almighty God, and most merciful Father, we humbly submit ourselves, and fall down before Your Majesty, asking You from the bottom of our hearts, that this seed of Your Word now sown among us, may take such deep root, that neither the burning heat of persecution cause it to wither, nor the thorny cares of this life choke it. But that, as seed sown in good ground, it may bring forth thirty, sixty, or a hundredfold, as Your heavenly wisdom has appointed. Amen.”
–Jonathan Gibson, from “Middleburg Liturgy,” in Be Thou My Vision: A Liturgy for Daily Worship (Wheaton, IL: Crossway, 2021), 176.
