O Source of life and love,
Torn by desires to sit back
and to enjoy the beauty of the world --
to savor the blue skies and gentle days --
and by desires to recast the world and to fight its evils --
to save the world...
Torn by all those things that hurt and confuse
and make no sense amid beauty --
yet supported by all those things that heal and hold us --
smiles, kisses, mountain vistas
and gentle waves, warm words...
We live in mystery.
We live torn apart at times --
so much glory --
so much pain.
We live in faith --
faith in ourselves and each other --
faith that we can create bonds of the spirit
that proclaim we are not alone.
We have much health within us --
we can live through the heartache to new life.
So, for the grace of the world
and all the tumble, too,
this day we give thanks. Amen.
