Gracious God, you bring springtime waters that renew the earth. We thank you for the lakes and rivers, ponds and lakes, headwaters and aquifers. From the Red Sea of Exodus to the font of our baptisms, we praise you for the way that you have used water throughout the ages to bear your redemptive purposes. In this day, rain your love upon us. Fill us with forgiveness, grace, and a generosity of spirit. Open our free-flowing response so that we might channel your goodness and gifts to others. Through Christ, Amen.
