Prayers of Thanksgiving and Intercession

For your Spirit woven into the fabric of creation

for the eternal overlapping with time

and the life of earth interlaced with heaven's vitality

I give you thanks, O God.

For your untamed creativity

your boundless mystery

and your passionate yearnings

planted deep in the soul of every human being

I give you thanks.

Grant me the grace to reclaim these depths

to uncover this treasure

to liberate these longings

and in being set free in my own spirit

to act for the well-being of the world.

Recall the events of the day and pray for the life of the world
