We enter your sacred prayer space, and we are embraced by your light. Your light reveals even the places we have held private in our hearts. You do not condemn us for our dark secrets; Life-giving Spirit lovingly blows into us, pushing the darkness away.
How precious is your affection for us, O LORD. We dwell in your sacred prayer space. Your praise is on our lips when we fall into sleep and when we awaken. You are in our hearts and minds at all times. You meet all of our needs; we want for nothing.
Thank you, LORD of the Sabbath, for inviting us into your prayer space where we find your rest. We trust you by putting aside the work, so we can spend time with you. Thank you, nothing is hidden from you. We cherish life, rest, and healing.

You restore us in new lands, with new opportunities. We bring our faith, skills, and abilities. We lay them before you. Choose us for your service, so we will live long in the land you have promised us, and be a blessing to you and your creation.
Praise the LORD; praise the LORD; let the people rejoice! You, Yahweh, feed your people and we are satisfied. Nature joins with us, singing your praises. We remember you and your goodness, and we turn to you. We will tell the next generation of your love and all you have done.
