In The Morning Prayer

Lord send me forth this day
to bring your Good News
to those poor who hunger for a world of hope;
to my neighbor, starving for a friendly gesture;
to my co-worker who longs to be accepted.

Send me out with eyes open wide
to see the loveliness of your creation.
the sight of your face in the face of the stranger:
the insight to know the right words and gestures
to offer a hurting friend.

Send me in peace and joy
that I might be an instrument
of your liberating love.
your joyful presence.
and your redeeming compassion.

Grant that I may bring your presence to a
waiting world. Amen.
