Tender Creator,
whose hand has cradled us
through the hours and dreams of the night,
shelter and shepherd us
as we carry your good news into the world this day.
Make us seekers of wisdom,
reflectors of light to those who wander,
companions to those who are isolated.
Make our lives a living prayer of praise and gratitude,
and a testimony to your grace and hope.
Make our hearts a fertile field for your truth
that we may be fruitful in our service
to You and to others, Most Holy God.
Beloved Savior,
the creation is resplendent with your glory,
your abundant love dazzles
from greening trees and children's laughter
and the generous hearts of elders.
Come, Holy Spirit,
endow our spirits with courage and hope,
and place your hand of blessing over those
for whom we now pray.
Amen.
