Sermon Text: Genesis 1:1-2:4a
That we will celebrate your creation as good stewards
God of all, we rejoice in the wondrous beauty and order that You have created by your brooding Spirit and effective Word. We share your delight in your Creation!
How often we stand in awe when we gaze upon the vastness of your work, or when we stoop to examine the intricacies of some small part of this world.
Even our own bodies, made in your image, are marvellous in their design and durability. We praise You for your care in creating them!
Enable us to protect and enhance the goodness of this world You created by thoughtful and caring stewardship. Help us remember that You still bring order from chaos, that You still create new realities among us, that we are creatures in the midst of your creation, and that You alone are worthy of our thanks and praise. Amen.
