What Do You See?

Holy God, source of all good things, we ask that the gifts we offer to you this day would be dedicated to bringing your kin-dom of love, justice, and compassion into being in our midst. We acknowledge that when this service is over, it will be tempting to put our blinders back on, keep our focus on what’s right in front of us, and not see that which is all around us. Help us to see both the beauty of your caring and the ugliness of our indifference. We pray this in Christ’s name. Amen. (Amos 7:7-17)
