Prayer inspired by Psalm 16
Around the world we are finding creative and safe ways to gather,
together we crave something Holy, something Sacred, something Good – You.
As we listen out for one another, we cannot help but smile,
it is so good to be together.
We acknowledge that we are the lucky ones,
we are part of a loving community.
Yet, we still come to You, wondering what tomorrow will bring,
longing to trust you fully, believing in a brighter future.
Many of us are having dreams,
some of us can’t sleep for dreaming,
others slip into daydreams and struggle to focus,
we imagine what the world could be like when we fully emerge.
Could it be a world in which everyone is loved, feels safe, is healthy and where peace rules?
Loving God, reach into our dreaming and teach us how to make these dreams a reality.
On our good days, we can feel Your presence,
it’s wonderful!
Sometimes we dance around the lounge and sing out loud!
On our bad days, we can feel Your presence,
sometimes we cry, but we know You get it,
all our feelings are completely safe with You.
You see it all and yet You stick with us.
We are on this journey together.
Because of You, we are not alone.
So Be It
