O Lord, we come before you in awe and wonder, rejoicing in our blessings. All that is testifies to your power and glory, Your Love that was, and is, and ever shall be. Your continuing creation is an ode of joy as You call us to You and care for us. We lift our hearts before You, upheld by grace and buoyed by the embrace of your Spirit: hear our prayers. Open our hearts to the peace and truth of Christ, that we may walk in wisdom and holiness before You. Extend the awning of your blessing especially over those we now name.

Amen.
