Spirit of Life, your very presence among us is what gives us connection. Help us to sense that beneath our feet is the strength we need to keep us grounded. Help us to feel that behind our back is the protection we need to feel safe facing our fears. Help us to know that before our eyes lies the beauty we seek to feel astounded. Help us to lift our heads high enough to be aware of the vastness of our sky and of our spirit, and help us to know that within our hearts lies the love we need to complete the circle of connection in our lives.

We are grateful, Spirit of Love, for this day. May we use all of these gifts—our feet, our backs, our eyes, our heads and our hearts—to bring Love into this hurting world; this world which we so value, which we cherish. Amen.
