Prayers for the Seasons - Everyday

Preface for Everyday

We give you thanks, Lord,
that you have sent Jesus among us
and he became the reason for our hope.

You have called us to be children of the light,
no longer to walk in darkness,
not even to fear the night of death.

You call us to live by your commandment of love,
to recognize our neighbor as part of ourselves,
to see all things and all people
as part of your creation
and the earth itself as the home of your children.

For this we give thanks and pledge our faithful love
as we join the angels and saints
in their unending song of praise...
