In gratitude, we pray:

We awake to the pleasure of your presence, God. We bask in the warm embrace of your love. As you lovingly smile at us, we smile back in thankfulness for all that is–the purpose of our existence, the divine order of the universe, and the expressions of love and kindness of family, friends and all who we share our time with on this planet.

Today, we feel the joy, excitement, and anticipation of sharing time with those closest to our hearts. Our hearts are open and we pray for our brothers and sisters who are away from home, on the street, alone in the care of strangers, or lost in darkness. We hold them in your light and love as we express our desire and commitment to do good toward them and others today, always and in all ways. And so it is. In the name of our master, brother, teacher and friend Jesus the Christ.
