God,
I want to see you.
Help me to look for you in the world that surrounds me.
In the beauty of a blue sky and a sunrise.
In the gentleness of falling snow.
In the surprising growth of spring buds that seem to come out of nowhere.
Help me to look for you in the people that surround me.
In the kindness of a stranger.
In forgiveness from someone I have hurt or judged or wronged.
In the gifts and abilities of others that are a blessing to me.
Help me to look for you in the ways I live.
In my the values and priorities that shape my days.
In the choices I make in my work, my relationships, and my time.
In the ways I follow you in by living love, care, and forgiveness, even when that is not easy or rewarding.
Amen.
