O cosmic Birther of all radiance and vibration.
Soften
the ground of our being
and carve out of a space within us
where your Presence can abide.
Fill us with your creativity
so that we may be empowered
to bear the fruit of your mission.
Let each of our actions bear fruit
in accordance with your desire.
Endow us with the wisdom
to produce and share
what each being needs to grow and
flourish.
Untie the tangled threads of destiny that
bind us,
as we release others from the
entanglement of past mistakes.
Do not let us be seduced by that which
would divert us
from your true purpose,
but illuminate the opportunities of the
present moment.
For you are the ground and the fruitful
vision,
the birth, power and fulfillment,
as all is gathered
and made whole once again.
Amen.
Will we go “on line” for polar bears?
