Michel Bouttier was a pastor in the Reformed Church of France whose prayers, first published in 1954 have been translated in Prayers for MY Village[1].
NOTE: Submitted by Biran McGaffigan Here I am Lord, once more to plead the case for my village before You. I do not know how to penetrate the opaque veil that conceals from us the nearness of your kingdom. I do not know how to tear down the artificial decorations of “religion”; behind them we would find freedom itself, Joy, the glory of your presence! O Lord, let me not cease, at least, to present my village to you. In prayer let the fog that hinders each and all of us be dissipated – let that be my ministry! Before You I have free access; I have this grace to be able to speak to You about us, knowing that You hear, that You understand. Our wretchedness – have You not shared it in Christ? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [1] Michael Bouttier.
