Grace
O God,
Thank you for the word
above all words
that names the reality
above all realities.
Thank you for grace.
Thank you for the amazing
grace that you show us.
Thank you for your amazing
character out of which you
love us just as we are and
offer yourself to us with
no strings attached.
Thank you also for the grace
that some people show us.
Thank you for the grace
that causes them
to love us,
to accept us,
to embrace us,
to forgive us, and
to help us.
Let us be appropriately
grateful for everything that
you have done for us.
Let us be appropriately
grateful for everything that
other people have done for us, too.
Help us to grow in grace so that
we will be the kind of people
for whom others will be grateful …
Amen.
