Opening Prayer
Faithful One, You always call us back! In our aridity, You are refreshing dew which returns each morning. In our senseless reliance on resources other than You, You remain as faithful as cedars, oaks and ancient trees. You continue to feed and nourish us that we might blossom and discover again that we flourish in Your light, and are rooted in Your life. When our lives get confusing, clouded in darkness, and Your message divides rather than unites, help us to remain faithful, Sturdy God – as faithful as You have been to us. Empower us not to give up too easily on others, because You do not give up on us!
