Luther’s coffee cup prayer


Behold, Lord

An empty vessel that needs to be filled.

My Lord, fill it

I am weak in the faith; Strengthen me.

I am cold in love; Warm me and make me fervent, that my love may go out to my neighbor…

O Lord, help me.

Strengthen my faith and trust in you…

With me, there is an abundance of sin; in You is the fullness of righteousness.

Therefore I will remain with You,

Whom I can receive, but to whom I may not give.
