In awe, we worship you Creator God. Your voice thunders, causing the earth to shake and your whisper can calm us, bringing us hope and joy. Many are fearful of you because they do not know you. We want to know you more. Thank you for making us strong and for giving us peace.

With our hands, we will tend and care for your creation. With our ears, we will hear your voice. With our eyes, we will see the needs of others. With our voices, we will speak and sing health, peace, and love. With our hearts, we will show your compassion with creation and each other, so we will journey in a good way.

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.
