Lord we worship you because you are the God of miracles. We give thanks for those amazing miracles that you perform every day and which we take for granted. We thank you for the miracle of each breath that we take; the miraculous beauty of the flowers and animals around us; and for the miracle of love and peace.

Loving Jesus, thank you for your commitment to healing and compassion, even when the work was dangerous for you to do. Give inspiration and courage to those who serve in unsettled environments today, and surround them – all those who they serve – with your protection and peace. Amen.

Jesus, you were born as a baby and grew as a child, dependent on those who cared for you. Help me to share your humility, even as I stand for truth and justice. Teach me to stay open, honest and curious, loving even my neighbour who disagrees with me. Amen.

Today’s theme is , considering the imbalance between rich and poor: the rich polluting & ravaging the planet whilst the poor pay the price & struggle to survive in their wake.

Thank God for organisations like , & , to name but some, who highlight this issue. What we have now is gross climate injustice: how we need to turn things around!

Thank you, God, for the intrinsic value and worth you give to all without exception. Give me courage to acknowledge the ways in which I benefit from unjust systems, and to repent of the ways in which I’ve upheld them. Help me now to be part of the tearing down of inequalities. Amen.

Thank you, God of life, for your endless patience with me. Thank you for the years you’ve already given me, and every moment that I still have ahead. Help me to make the most of each day, and to find time for that which brings about justice and peace. Amen.

Gentle God, meet me in my tiredness and minister to me here. Help me resist the pressure to produce more, achieve more, and have more to show off to the world. Instead, simply grow in me deeper love for you and for others. Amen.

God of the ages, give us the breadth of mind and spirit to recognise holiness in the most unlikely areas of ourselves and the most marginalised parts of the world. Amen.

Loving God, who in Jesus shows us what love is, help us not to lose sight of this love. Give us the courage to live it out so that our faith may be seen in all that we do and our belief may be a way of life.
