Loving God, continue Your work of creation in us. In the work of our hands may beauty be shaped, healing and hope restored, feasts shared. In the work of our minds, may stories be created, children instructed, memories retold. In the work of our words, may praise be sung, prayers offered, counsel and encouragement given. In the hours of the days may our efforts bring gladness to our hearts and hope to others. Holy God, continue Your work of creation in us and through us......Amen
