Day 30 - April 8, 2014

In this moment we thank you for lacing
    eternity into our time,
        the longing for what lasts into our hearts,
            traces of your kingdom into...our days,
                and the assurance that you have made us for yourself
                    into the core of our souls.

We praise you for the joy that renews us
    through the miracle of each other,
        the wonder of children,
            the sharing of bread,
                the occasion of justice,
        the healing of music,
            the sprawl of sunsets,
                the scatter of stars,
        the anchoring of prayer
            the gift of Christ
                the summons of your Spirit
        making us small but blest partners
            in your ongoing creation.

For your grace beyond our grasp,
    we praise you and ask
        that you deepen our faith
            and strengthen our faithfulness
                through Jesus Christ our Lord.

                        Amen.
