Loving Yahweh, we have used the breath you have given us to hurt you, ourselves, and creation. We have been blind to your loving goodness and believed lies about you and your creation. Thank you for your gentle voice that calls us by name. Thank you for your healing touch and filling us with your Holy Spirit. Thank you we can work with you by sharing your love and forgiveness as we go about our lives.

We pause and selah together with you, O LORD. We encourage each other to keep our eyes on you. We know that only by keeping our focus on you will we be able to do your work. Give us strength and courage to always worship you, even when we are tempted to worship our work instead.

We call out to you, our God; we confess we have not followed you nor obeyed you. We have gone our own way. Thank you for your Messengers of Love who call us back to you. Thank you for your compassion and mercy.

Thank you, Yahweh, for wrapping us in your love. Thank you for reminding us to let go of our anger, bitterness, and slander. Thank you for the invitation to be kind and compassionate. Thank you for forgiving us.

Divine Family, thank you we share and participate in your heavenly calling. Thank you, Jesus, son of God, for being faithful to God and to us. We look to you with open hearts and minds so we can learn and grow in our relationship with you and be in partnership with you.

Be the light in our hearts and on our journeys. Bless the fields where we are and where we will find selah. Bless the land of our sojourn so we will plant and harvest honourably. We will place faith-markers here, as reminders through the generations of your unending light and salvation.
