God our rock
God of changing seasons
God of justice
God of promise
God of love
Be with us now as we seek answers in the midst of flying bullets, drones and bombs
Be with us now as we run for cover in the midst of tornadoes, floods and storms
Be with us now as we face hate in its many and growing forms, isms, and manifestations
God our rock
God of changing seasons
God of justice
God of promise
God of love
Be with us now as we boldly begin to uncover and name our own histories, identities, and gifts
Be with us now as we create space for active listening, being known, and truly seeing each other
Be with us now as we lay aside our weapons of fear, hate, greed and supremacy
God our rock
God of changing seasons
God of justice
God of promise
God of love
Cause us to fully embody Your holy will for a world of love, justice and peace – now and forevermore. Amen.
