Genesis 9:8-17

Loving Divine Family,

We enter your sacred prayer space to pause on this threshold of transition. You have revealed your new covenant to us. We are beneficiaries of the agreement and promises you made to all creation. Our calling is to obey your voice and honour you, each other, and creation.

Divine Family, thank you for this sacred time with you. Thank you for the rain that washes away the mould, death, and garbage. Thank you for the rain that renews and nourishes creation. You desire to be in a harmonious relationship with us. Thank you for constantly seeking us and calling us into harmony with you and creation. Thank you for the rainbow that is a reminder for you of your loving covenant with us.

I obey your voice today, Loving Creator, and thank you for…

We build a new faith-marker in this place; in our journals and hearts, we mark the day of your covenant. Give us your talents so we will tell the stories of your covenant to our community and to the generations to follow. May your promises be foundations in our lives.

With joy, we praise you!

Amen!

Cherie and Donovan Mutschler

Loving Yahweh, your song of renewal and restoration brings joy to us. We breathe in your breath and allow your words “Do not be afraid” penetrate us bringing a calmness. Thank you for restoring and replenishing what has been taken from us. Creation and new birth is all around us, encouraging hope. Thank you for the work you do for us. Thank you, we will never again be ashamed.

We remember your compassion in the Upper Room. We enter your sacred prayer space, seeking your compassion once again. We experience fear about the future’s uncertainty. Our hearts are troubled. How shall we survive in the face of these challenges to our mortal lives? You draw near to us. We feel your breath on our necks as you whisper in our ears, “believe in me.”

My mouth is full of crap and I speak out of ignorance, out of selfishness. I look at the situations and circumstances, consumed with pain, sin, and hatred. You graciously listen to me grumble. Your words and questions stop me in my tracks. What is it to you, mortal? Where were you, when I created the earth? I am humbled by your thoughts and realize I do not know the big picture or the purpose. I forgot I was created by joy and for joy. I was created to have a relationship with you. Thank you for listening while I puke out the crap and for calling me back to you. You love me. I am yours.
