Creator God,
Help us to appreciate the beauty and promise of all things sacred.
Remind us that we do not own the glimpses of beauty that we experience, above the earth or below the waters.
Open us to the wisdom that Creation teaches.
And bind us to Creation’s story, so that we may together celebrate, nurture, and fight for our global community, and cherish your beauty through our words and actions wherever we find it.
Amen.
