PRAYER FOR SANTA MARTA
Christ,
who made creatures our teachers;
who shared the habitat of wild things
to resist the deadly wisdom
of disconnection delay and greed,
of injustice which wounds God’s Earth….
Christ,
Bless and inspire every committed gathering
which reads the signs and breaks the chains ;
of the devil’s muddling veto on “yes” and “no”
in the clear light of your New Day.
Bless the resolve of those who have gathered
for the ‘amen’- the realisation – of a clean and just world
Christ
who called for change of heart and mind
that God’s Rule might more swiftly approach:
liberate us all with love and courage;
your medicine, both against despair
and white lies of complacency.
God, Christ, Wild Wind,
spread the green news of hope and clarity
strengthen the speech of those who share
and always:
help us live to listen love and protect
the Creation we are, the flesh you share:
in Jesus’ name
Amen [Get on with it!]
