God of wisdom, we see your love in the rising sun and waning tide,
you grace Earth with life in mysterious variety.
Every thing has meaning, is blessing; each of us is charged with their care -
from the smallest creature to the ocean’s depth.
Grant us wisdom to know your ways of love and gentle kindness.
Give us the mind to learn what we do not know but long to understand
so that we may honor and nurture all that makes us one with you. Amen.
-Diane Lopez Hughes
