Day 40 – Saturday
Psalm
24:1-10
God, our Creator, we remember, once again,
that all of creation has been generated by your word of love and delight. We
remember that You have placed us in this complex, beautiful, and often
challenging world in order to be your stewards who nurture and enhance the
fruitfulness of all that surrounds us.
We rejoice in the intellect, skills,
spiritual gifts and energy You have given us in order to serve the world in
wise, compassionate, generous, just and peaceful ways.
We know that we cannot bring your reign to
its fullest and final expression, but enable us, now, to do your will, as
completely as we can, in preparation for the day when You will complete your
work of renewing and restoring all of creation.
We pledge ourselves wholly to You. We are
your stewards! We delight to do your will! We commit ourselves to stirring up
the gifts You have given us so that we may be more effective servants. We
anticipate the fulfillment of all of your promises with joy! Amen.
Easter
Sunday
Christ Jesus lives! Hallelujah!
Celebrate resurrection.
In the coming days, contemplate what your
stewardship looks like in the light of resurrection. What changes might you
make that would suggest that God’s life-giving power is at work, in new ways,
in your life?
