Morning
Prayer
We begin
the day alone,
honoring
this life, with all its potentials and possibilities.
We begin
our day with trust,
knowing we
are created for loving encounter.
We begin
our day with hope,
knowing the
day can hold
love,
kindness,
forgiveness
and justice.
We recall
our day yesterday,
May we
learn, may we love,
May we live
on.
We make
room for the unexpected,
May we find
wisdom and life
In the
unexpected.
Help us to
embrace possibility,
Respond
graciously to disappointment
And hold tenderly
those we encounter
Help us to
be fully present to the day.
We pray for
all whose day will be difficult,
May we
support, may we listen,
May we
change.
We resolve
to live life in its fullness:
We will
welcome the people who’ll be part of this day,
We will
greet God in the ordinary and hidden moments.
We will
live the life we are living.
May we find
the wisdom we need,
God be with
us.
May we hear
the needs of those we meet,
God be with
us.
May we love
the life that we are given.
God be with us.
