Happy Summer Solstice!

Oh Holy One,

We give thanks and celebration for the intensity of life that is calling to us today. Your world is a myriad of beautiful things, all perfectly balanced. Our natural world, the Earth is reaching in to us through our shells and calling to us to come immerse ourselves in the pure perfection of its beauty. This is our real world which can only be achieved through your handiwork. We feel at home in nature, able to open up and saturate ourselves in the vitality and joyousness of the living breathing world. Being immersed there is the most natural thing we have felt in a long time. “How many are your works, Lord! In wisdom you made them all; the earth is full of your creatures. There is the sea, vast and spacious, teeming with creatures beyond number, living things both large and small.” (Psalm 104:24-25)

When we connect with our faith, and your love for us, we realize that the Earth is not out to harm us, the Earth is a loving mother with outstretched arms asking us to take our rightful place as her stewards, just as you intended. We release any fear of something being wrong with the Earth, and embrace the inner transformation that a strong connection with the Earth provides. When we feel at one with the natural world, everything that is right and holy just falls into place, all confusion abates and time seems to be on our side again. “He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end.” (Ecclesiastes 3:11)

Bless us all this day, Father, may we all feel the joyousness of a strong connection to our loving Earth, and may we take up the vital force offered to us, with grace and ease. “Consider how the wild flowers grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these.” (Luke 12:27)

In gratitude and loving respect we pray,

In Jesus’ name,

Amen.

Prayer of the Unique Song

And the Lord blesses this day for our use to create our future in the highest form of Light imaginable.

Father, Thank you for this day. We truly see it as a gift, being in gratitude for everything there is about the life experience here on Earth. When we take a moment, we can truly see the creation of life as a miracle. We find your miracles every day in the perfectly synchronized ballet of nature that our beautiful Earth gives to us to appreciate like a basket filled with the finest blessings one could imagine. We rejoice in all that is good and holy in our natural world. “The Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to work it and keep it.” (Genesis)

When we leave the world of digital chaos for a moment, and step into the natural world of your creation, Father, this is where we experience your unconditional for us. We realize that we, are writing our own story simply by choosing where we put our time and focus. By choosing the best version of our reality in every moment. When we immerse ourselves in your handiwork, and really take it in, we then find our own unique song. It reminds us of a long lost remembering of home that reaffirms that we are the only author of our story and nobody is allowed to write it for us, but you. “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.” (Romans)

We ask for your blessings for every member of our team, may they and their families know the peace of your love. May our day be filled with unlimited opportunity. May your hand continue to guide and protect us all through our work, in humble service to you.

So be it.

Amen.

Prayer of Rebirth

Father,

We welcome another blessed day gifted from your hands. As we observe the cycles of life in nature, we are reminded that every year brings us a new chance to learn through the rhythm of life, death and rebirth. It may feel as if our lives are on a yearly repeat, but it gives us an opportunity to elevate our experience in a way that takes us on a journey spiraling upward year by year. As we climb the staircase, Father, we become more authentic, more light-filled, more fueled by our unique passion. We embrace this season of renewal with joy.

At this point, we allow the healing process of renewal to surge, raising our spirit up and feeding our bodies. We open our hearts and invite the experience of your healing force into every cell our body. We come alive with the rhythms of life-giving nature. We know, that any time we need to be restored, we can be washed in nature’s refreshment. “Let his flesh become fresher than in youth, Let him return to the days of his youthful vigor;” (Job)

We ask that you bless our family and friends, our teams and tribes. May we all be renewed with strength and vitality, so that we may serve you in our rising reality “and have put on the new self who is being renewed to a true knowledge according to the image of the One who created him—“ (Colossians) We know there is a way out of this mess, Father, and we know that you have cleared the path for us.

In gratitude and loving service,

Amen
