O God of Grace, You are our salvation:
may our eyes behold your light and illumine our hearts with Love.
Your Love, O God, is a soothing balm:
the merciful gift of Love sets us on solid rock when we flounder.
Let us place before You the hurts that burden us:
your Love heals us and sets us free.
Let us place before You the aches and pains of weary hearts:
your Love heals us and releases us to joy.
Let us place before You our woundedness and fly free of its pull:
your Love heals us and reminds us to love each other.
Let us place before You the fears that hold us back from loving others:
your Love heals us and makes us whole.
Let us place before You our failure to see You in each other:
your Love heals us and calls us to be loving in all things.
May our silences and our words,
our actions and our thoughts,
our hands and our hearts
be instruments of your love today.
May your love rest upon all who cry to You,
O God of Tenderness,
especially those whom we now name.
Amen.
