I glorified You on earth,

having accomplished the work

that You gave Me to do.

                    John 17. 4

(And even for us,

God's glory is seamlessly woven

                   into our story.

What has God laid before us to do?

    Love Him and love others,

    every which way we can.

Who does God desire us to be?

                       His.

Are we faithful to Him?

Faithfulness in any form

        is never insignificant.

Through the tiniest seed,

  God brings forth

              a mighty forest.)

O LORD,

May we glorify You today

   on this patch of sacred ground

   and among those

          You have appointed us.

No matter our story this day,

     our words and actions,

may we point others to You.

And to realize

           Your redeeming,

    even in the hard stuff.

Bring Your glory to it,

  even in what we may never see.
