Prayer 870


Holy God, Creator, Savior, and Sustainer, we give You thanks and praise for your bounteous gifts to us. Thank You for the gift of this new day, and the breath within us that will carry us through our work. 

We offer you our hands and our hearts: consecrate them to your service, O Loving One, that we may be united to You in love and faithfulness. 
Renew a right spirit within us, that we may seek unity, healing, and reconciliation in the world to the glory of your kingdom. 
Preserve us, O God, from all dangers and snares that could lead us astray, from anger or hardness of heart. 

Bring us at day's end to the perfect rest that comes from serving You and each other in amity and compassion. Guard and defend all who call upon You, O God, and send forth your angels to shield those we now name.

Amen.
