~Water~ Karla

Creator God
Mother and Father of all that is
in humbleness and humility for all that is undeserving,
hear our fervent prayer.
We have grown thirsty from crying,
wandering the desert, troubled, delirious...far gone.
We see the water, yet do not drink.
Unclench our sticky, furled fists of greed so we may catch
one lone tear from your heavenly Grace.
Let it wash us clean so that we may, once again, feel the beauty of the earth...like children
eyes cleansed, restoring vision that clearly sees the gift of creation
let it run through our veins, blood of Christ...life giving forgiveness
quenching our insatiable thirst for the riches of the land and sea
give drink to our parched hearts, restoring the connected rhythm with all of creation.
Amen
