I join in creation’s song to you today, O Yahweh, and thank you for…
There is no waiting on you, Gracious Creator. You call us to come now, as we are. We come together as your family. Even if we are broken, tired, sick, hungry, hurting, lonely, grieving or doubting, we come to you now. Healed, healthy, rested, restored, joyful or faithful; we come to you now. We have come from all directions and walks of life to gather together in thanksgiving.
We cast all our cares before you and celebrate the ease with which we can journey on our paths when we follow your guidance. We step with you in confidence and faith that you are attentive to all our needs. Walk with us through this circle of life so we will keep our eyes on you and celebrate your presence with us, and be ready when you call us to eternity with you upon your holy mountain.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-13
Matthew 25:31-46
Revelation 21:1-6
We enter your sacred prayer space to give ourselves to you. We have walked paths of the wealthy and done things for show. Yet when you call us to give out of our abundance, we harden our hearts and withhold ourselves and our possessions. We protect our possessions by withholding them from others in need. We protect ourselves by finding tasks and excuses that keep us from serving. We hear your warnings to not withhold like this and we desire to do better.
