Lord, hear our prayer:

Almighty God, our heavenly Father, we praise you for creating us in your image and giving us the desire to create and the ability to think, to plan, to choose and to love Wonderful God! We praise you for your love showered over the whole of your creation and made flesh in Jesus Christ who came, lived, died and was raised as a sign of your love. We praise you that your love has reached out to our own hearts and lives and, through your Holy Spirit, is changing us and making us into the people you always meant us to be. We praise you and in Christ we give you all the glory.

Amen.
