Creation understands interdependence
Embraces it, models it
Reveals to us that in our connection we have our very being
Creation is calling us back to life
To accountability
To communion
To joy
To healing
To freedom
I pray we humans get it …
The Creator is conspiring on our behalf
Revealing a living hope
Filling us with boldness
Showering us with love
Grounding us in justice
I pray we humans respond …
soon.
Our children and their children and generations to come are relying on us.
Let it be so, God.
Amen and ashé
