Genesis 1:1-19

Loving Divine Family,

We gather from the four directions across Mother Earth, under the vastness of your sky to sing praises to you. Even before our arrival, you prepared all things for us. You prepared for days, in anticipation of us. How perfect is our dwelling among your creation; how perfect is your dwelling place among us!

Almighty Creator, you created something from nothing. You are in the darkness, in the chaos and in the formless void, creating and bringing forth life. You look at your creation and see that it is good. Thank you for having a place for everything and a purpose. We marvel at your goodness.

I marvel at all you have created today, O LORD, and thank you for…

You created all things, and you have begun a new creation within us. Place your song in our hearts; we will sing it to you with all creation.

With joy, we praise you!

Amen!

Cherie and Donovan Mutschler

We enter your sacred prayer space, feeling so close to our goals. Just days ago, we were alive with the excitement of your entry into Jerusalem. Now, at midweek, we feel weary. You encourage us to stay our course, to keep our eyes on you. We feel Life-giving Spirit embracing us; her breath is a sweet kiss on our bodies as you refresh and wash the dirt of travelling wilderness roads from us.

You speak, and the whole world hears your voice. To some, your voice sounds like thunder, to others you sound like the wind. All creation hears you, though we do not all remember the sound of your voice. But the wind and waves still know you. The earth melts at the sound of your voice. In your sacred prayer space, you remind us of who you are.
