The Power of Your Energy and Love Through Us Can Change Most Difficult Situations. By Katherine Harman, December 4, 2011 Dear God of comfort and hope, The power of your energy and love through us can change most difficult situations The community that results creates lasting change that builds and grows But in our extremely busy and stressful lives we often cannot see your power working in us As we rush through our days, although we know that change takes time; We look for immediate fixes to our problems We often ask for the world to change We look to you to intervene, to step into our lives and take away our pain We do not see the power of our community, the god that is you and me During this Advent season we have concerns about money, security and health Let us take a moment to reflect on these concerns and the people in our lives … PAUSE Thank you for the time we have with our community, with our friends and family Thank you for curiosity and challenge, for compassion and empathy Thank you for our successes as we address difficult situations, through understanding and patience. Help us this morning to be open to the word of love and care for each other Help to open our eyes and our hearts to the comfort and hope we can create for one another Let us see god and the capacity for change in each of us. AMEN
