In gratitude we come before You, O God, with hearts that seek to serve You in constancy and devotion. Forgive us, we pray, for our hard-heartedness and resistance to your call to love You and each other fully. Free us from the suspicions that shackle us in fear and turmoil. May we put our hand in yours as little children, and give glory to You always. Let us look upon the world You have given us in wonder and gratitude, and be devoted to its care. Secure within the embrace of your unending mercy, O Holy One, may we turn into the arms of our God and Savior. Hear the prayers of your children, Almighty God, and place your blessing upon those we now name.
Amen.
