Spirit of God, we long to mend the broken circle. We long to heal the fractures in the world around us and within our own souls; to transform those parts of ourselves and our world that block our making contact with our deepest reality, and with the deepest most sacred dimensions of all other beings.
Spirit of God, we long to see reality; to contact our deepest yearning for a world pulsating with justice and truth, to create a society where all sit down at the Great Banquet, where all persons eat until they are full.
Spirit of God, we long to discover anew the courage deep within us; to see and to listen, to discover our true selves, to take steps to stop the cycle of violence, in our homes, in our work-places, in our neighborhoods, in our country, and in our whole world.—AMEN.
