MorningPrayer

Dear God,      In the reflection of your steadfast compassion we feel protected and cared for in our time of need. We place ourselves in your hands, trusting in the eternal promise of infinite Grace as offered by the Christ. May we let go of our pride and gently rest in the bosom of your love. AMEN

Dear God,      In beauty let us live and walk.  May we talk in harmony and breathe in peace. In your graceful presence might we relate to other people and to our Earth.  May the Christ be our constant companion and show us the way of compassion, forgiveness and healing in our Spirit filled life. AMEN

Dear God,      In the middle of anxiety, stress or fears help us to pause and breathe the garden breath of your calming Spirit. Cleanse us and then fill us full of Last Supper peace.    Breathe on us the breath of God. AMEN

Dear God,       Who are we?       Followers of Christ?       Leaders of the lost?       Followers of Jesus?       Leaders of compassion?       Listening vessels of you?       Whisperers of your truth?       Inhalers of the Holy Spirit?       Exhalers of spiritual love? In humility and grace, Yes.... We are these things. AMEN

Holy Lord,     On this sabbath may we be surrounded by your majesty and beauty.  Fill our souls with joy, our hearts with peace and our mouths with mirth. May we proclaim awe and wonder as we bow our heads, overwhelmed and humbled by creation. May we, even though we be like specks of sand in the universe, be people who bring kindness and love to all. AMEN

Dear God,       If we are weary in the humid air of confusion or when cicadas munch at our nerve endings, may you refresh our brow with the cooling cloth of compassion and sooth our soul in the promise of eternal love.  May the hem of Jesus cloak fill our grasping fingertips and that rough cloth be our assurance of Grace. AMEN

Dear God,      The threads of our lives are vast and colorful, creating weavings and textures that are sometimes  simple but often complex...events, thoughts, people and random circumstances come together in a never ending design. In this tangled web we might get lost without your guiding hand and loving touch. Simplify the weaving of our lives so we might live in awe and praise as our daily thread. AMEN

Dear God.     Under the wings of your love, we are nourished, nurtured and protected. In your abiding presence, we shall dwell, forever and ever. We shall not fear and not be anxious because you are with us, you love us and in your grace, we shall know peace.  We give you thanks and praise, our Lord, and God, AMEN Common Loon sitting on two eggs, Kahshe Lake, Green Island.

Dear Reader,     I have been traveling and have had technical difficulties with the blog off the computer.  But will write, as now, when the computer is available and will continue to work on the technical aspects.     I pray you are well and that your prayer life is vibrant. ...keith
