Good and gracious God, help me stay active and tend the garden that is my faith. Keep me ever aware of your love and the claim that it has on my living. Guide the way that I relate to others so that my actions, words, and thoughts might reflect your grace, hospitality, and forgiveness. Empower me to participate in the creative and redemptive work of your kingdom. Through Jesus Christ, amen.
