Father/Mother/Creator of us all – You who reaches farther than the farthest galaxy, and are nearer than the very air we breathe – Your very name is beyond our grasp, and yet You love us still.

May your Kingdom rule our hearts, with love, hope, faith, mercy, and kindness – in this troubled time and in this place, this earth – May we all live in your will, your love, loving our neighbors, just as you love.

May all humankind have food to fill their need, and our need, for this day – Forgive us when we forget that it is our responsibility to feed the hungry, clothe the needy – to do your will.

Forgive us all our disconnection from you, forgive us our anger, our fear, our narrow-mindedness – and help us to learn to forgive others.

Lead us away from those sins of hate, fear, anger, narrow-minded exclusion, of thinking first of self – Deliver us, and lead us away from all such evil, and into your will.

For only You have the power to overcome, only You can rule Your Kingdom on earth – Only You have the Glory. Amen.
