To they which encourage us to be still and to know.

Today we come with hearts to hear;
To listen for Sprit’s voice
That we might collectively discern what you want us to pay attention to.

Allow us to hear your voice in creation;
That nature would tell us of your nature.

Allow us to hear your voice in our neighbors;
That by knowing them we might better know how to love.

Allow us to hear your voice in our deconstruction community;
That we can hear your hope as we seek and heal.

Allow us to listen even now for you.

[pause for a period of listening]

Amen.
